The ambiguity of the Decca Navigator system has been resolved in the Mark V (or QM5) receiver by the addition of a fourth dial called a "lane identification meter". Its use enables the operator to set each decometer to the correct lane within a zone. He must still know which zone his ship is situated in, however, in order to set the correct letter on the decometer. 3, record 1, English, - lane%20identification%20meter
