Nearest Flight Service Station (FSS) Page

The Nearest Flight Service Station Page displays the
facility name, bearing to and distance to the five near-
est FSS points of communication (within 200 nautical
miles of your present position). For each FSS listed,
the Nearest Flight Service Station Page also indicates
the frequency(s) and may be used to quickly tune the
COM transceiver to the FSS' s frequency. The selected
frequency is placed in the standby field of the COM
window and activated using the COM flip-flop key.
For duplex operations, "RX" and "TX" indications
appear beside the listed frequencies — indicating
"receive only" or "transmit only" frequencies. The asso-
ciated VOR is also provided for reference.
