Multiple Choice

UJM Marvell VOR/DME lies in which sector?

The concept being tested is how to read radar/sector boundaries on a chart to determine which sector a navigation aid sits in. Radar sectors divide the chart into fixed wedges that ATC uses for tracking and control, and each wedge is labeled with a number. To solve, locate the VOR/DME symbol on the map and see which wedge boundaries enclose it; the label inside that wedge tells you the sector. In this case, the UJM Marvell VOR/DME falls inside the wedge labeled 15, so it lies in Sector 15. The other sector numbers correspond to adjacent wedges that do not contain the VOR/DME symbol. This reading helps you understand which radar sector would be responsible for that area.
