jr,

Please disregard the above post.

On the standard CDI, full scale deflection is indeed 2.5 degrees in ILS mode.

This has absolutely nothing to do with ILS localiser azimuth coverage whatsoever.

Angular deviation left or right is based purely on the difference of depth of modulation of the 90Hz AM frequency and the 150Hz AM frequency.
