Marker Beacon

[weirdjim]

The old marker beacon transmitters (75 MHz., white, blue, amber lights) have been removed from my local ILS airports (MYV, SMF, SAC) and replaced with radar fixes on final.

Are there any ILS marker beacon transmitters left in the CONUS these days?

Thanks,

Jim

Looking at the most recent plate for SAC, it looks like the vortac replaces the outer marker as the FAF?
