B777 NAVRAD VOR Tracking

[terryesh]

What technique is used to track to and from a VOR? I am a computer pilot using Phoenix Software 777-300ER panel complete with FMC. NAVRAD provides for inputing VOR freq. and OBS, but no provision to enable autopilot to track to or from.

Real World, how is this accomplished?

Thank you,

Terryesh,
Put the required VOR at the top of pg. 1 of the active route legs, execute and select Lnav.(you can select a particular inbound course to intercept if you don't want to go direct).
Alternatively, manually select a VOR and course, display the VOR, and use TRK SEL/HLD once on the required radial.
Hope this helps,

I am impressed with the quick response. My apologies for not checking in sooner. The email notification was disabled.

So what both of you are informing me is VOR tracking is ancient history now that FMC is in use.

Thank you for advancing my limited knowledge.
