Les radiophares d'alignement sont constitués par deux paires d'antennes qui émettent sur la même fréquence [...] des signaux de manipulation complémentaire (par exemple les lettres A et N, représentées en alphabet morse [.- et -.]; sur un axe bien délimité, la confusion des signaux A et N se traduit par l'émission d'un trait continu. Le pilote peut ainsi rejoindre le radiophare installé par exemple sur sa base. Ce système présente l'avantage de n'exiger à bord aucun appareillage particulier, l'emploi du récepteur H.F.
