The folks at WWRB radio have put together an
updated version of the old 4-course radio range (this one is in the 28 MHz band,
and since the wavelength is a lot shorter than the original LF band it takes up
a lot less physical real estate).
The video is a bit "corny" in places (and could
also use some editing to tighten it up in places, plus the "dramatic"
flying music could definitely be lost), but it's still a good demonstration of
how aircraft radio navigation was done back in the early days.
