The ADF system is so notoriously inaccurate you'd be getting a warning every time the aircraft turned never mind when subjected to the normal coastal, night and thunderstorm effects etc that cause errors in the system.
Perhaps for the younger guys it is a mystery, not for older folks whom have used one for many years....night/coastal effects notwithstanding.
a) Sadly deluded
b) Grossly misinformed
c) Deliberately trying to mislead anyone reading this thread.
None of the above.
Any further questions?
