The dual head ADF panel that I have will require a good amount of restoration work as you can see in the picture above. Most Lockheed L-1011s had a single dual head ADF panel located on the center console of the L-1011. ADF preset positions range from 100 to 1799. There is a triple stacked knob for each ADF radio. The panel has two of each of the following elements:
- FREQUENCY WINDOW ... displays the selected frequency.
- BFO ... Adds a tone to help identify a non-directional radio station.
- ADF/ANTENNA SELECTOR ... ADF - Automatic Direction Finding. RDDMI pointers will indicate the magnetic bearing to a selected station. ANT - Use for range reception
Panel Location (the aircraft I photographed did not have the ADF head, but, I indicated the position anyway).
