VOR on test NOTAM
For our company check program they came up with this scenario:
Larnaka,NOTAM VOR on test.
wind 060/19 and TEMPO OVC010TCU.
GPS jamming so no RNP app.04
option ILS 22,circle to land 04,however the ILS requires DME of VOR
So can we use the DME of a VOR that’s on test?
Any thoughts on this?
thanks in advance for thinking along.

Given this is EASA territory, it's not applicable, but nevertheless gives an idea how it could be interpreted:

Does the NOTAM say the DME is unserviceable? If it’s only the VOR then I’d be happy to use the DME. The DME ident tone is higher so you know which you’re listening to. 3 x low VOR idents and 1 x high DME.
