LO position for ILS approaches.
(3) SPKR/PHONE Switch -- SELECT speaker or phone audio.
(4) TEST Switch -- PRESS and ensure that marker beacon indicator
lights are operative.

SECTION 1
GENERAL
The Cessna 400 Glide Slope is an airborne navigation r-eceiver which
I
""l'ives and interprets glide slope signals from a ground-based
Insf.r
u-
IIII'ntLanding System (ILS). It is used with the localizer function
of a
VHF
uuv igat ion system when making instrument approaches to an airport. The
I'.lldeslope provides vertical path guidance while the localizer
pr-ovides
lnuizontal
track guidance.
The Cessna 400 Glide Slope system consists of a remote-mounted
"'I.'eiver coupled to an existing navigation system, a panel-mounted
indi-
"lior and an externally-mounted antenna. The glide slope receiver is
oI"signed to receive ILS glide slope signals on any of 40 channels. The
rhnunels are spaced 150 kHz apart and cover a frequency range of 329. ] 5
MHz through 335.0 MHz. When a localizer frequency is selected on Uw
N/\
V receiver, the associated glide slope frequency is selected
