A glide slope station uses a phased antenna array sited on a tower which is offset approximately 250 to 650' to one side of the runway centerline and approximately 750 to 1250' beyond the approach end of the runway, adjacent to the runway touchdown zone. The GS transmits in the 328 to 336

Localizer (LOC) and glide slope (G/S) carrier frequencies are paired so that the navigation radio automatically tunes the G/S frequency which corresponds to the selected LOC frequency. The LOC signal is in the 110 MHz range while the G/S signal is in the 330 MHz range.

LOC carrier frequencies range between 108.10 and 111.95 MHz (with the 100 kHz first decimal digit always odd, so 108.10, 108.15, 108.30, etc., are LOC frequencies and are not used for any other purpose).

The centre of the glide slope signal is arranged to define a glide path of approximately 3° above horizontal (ground level). 154: 256: 542: 538: 110: 34: 634: 237: 210: 514: 482: 320: 466: 434: 382: 526: 474: 470: 175: 51: 598: 644: 510: 478: 462: 446: 374: 313: 170: 649: 534: 414: 86: 608: 582: 106: 506: 562: 454: 502: 346: 194: 574: 486: 458: 442: 390: 386: 138: 114: 102: 89:
