Exclamation dme freq.

Hello,

I have a question. Given shall be a STAND ALONE DME like Friedrichshafen. FREQ. shall be 112,500 MHz.

Regarding DMEs I have found in a JAR questionary database the following task:

The DME (Distance
Measuring Equipment)
operates within the
following frequencies:

329 to 335 MHz
962 to 1213 kHz.
962 to 1213 MHz
108 to 118 MHz

correct is charlie. My question: How is any of the frequencies btw. 962 + 1213 MHZ (other sources state 960 - 1210 MHz as the ICAO conformal solution...) allocated to the airborne cockpit setting of 112,500 MHz? Why do I not set a stand alone frequency directly?

Why are the frequencies different from those set in the cockpit at all?

yours lusthansa + thx for answers
