24. (Refer to Figure 25, area 5.) The VOR is tuned to the Ranger VORTAC. The omnibearing selector (OBS) is set on 256°, with a TO indication, and a left course deviation indicator (CDI) deflection. What is the aircraft's position from the VORTAC?

The OBS is set to 253° with a TO indication and a right CDI deflection, which means the airplane is left of course (an OBS setting greater than 256°). The reciprocal of 256° is 073°, but since the airplane is left of course, the actual radial the airplane is on is greater than 073°, or closer to east. Therefore, the airplane is east-northeast of the VOR.
