A NAVAID should not be used for primary navigation outside it's protected range. When on the LOC and GS, you are following the ILS and therefore it shhould be considered as the primary NAVAID.

Mr B. I remember doing that as well. The Marham ILS localiser was transmitted at higher power, something to do with it being used as an emergency navaid to get battle damaged aircraft safely back across the North Sea.
