Older Localizers (certain brands) frequently have false capture problems . . . particularly on very long runways as the equipment is being overdriven in order to narrow the course width.

Some older equipment (still in use) employ an antenna system that can partially fail causing both false capture and false course that the executive monitors will not detect.

nuff said . . . not about to give course here . . .
