Hello,
I've searched everywhere and can't seem to get a firm answer to the following question...
I realize that the MEA guarantees navaid reception along an airway, but does this mean it guarantees the reception of both navaids along the entire length of an airway if there is no changeover point? For example, if instead of switching halfway between the VORs as I've been instructed, could I just choose to continue to fly "FROM" VOR ABC all the way until I reach the other VOR and still get a signal from the VOR I'm flying from? A great example of this seems to be northbound from PXN to ECA ON V113 in Central Califoria. In this situation I would have to use the 328 radial from PXN for the entire segment because the 147 radial off ECA isn't usable as indicated.
Thank you! Any help is appreciated.
