NOTE
Near the DME ground station, it can happen under certain
adverse conditions that the Bendix/King KN 63 DME loses
the direct signal from the ground station and locks onto an
"echo". This will result in an inaccurate indication of the
distance.
NOTE
During retraction and extension of the landing gear the
ADF-indication may be inaccurate.
