Re RADIAL RADIAL RADIAL
WRONG WRONG WRONG

The term Radial applies only to a VOR.

The equivalent using NDB/ADF is a Bearing which may be From or To.

Do not use Radial incorrectly as ATC must assume you are operating on VOR. It is common for there to be an NDB with the same name at an airport, but quite likely to be at a significantly different location.
