If DME hold is selected, you will not be able to use the VOR course information for ILS or VOR tracking if you select another frequency.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only when DME is active
• D. Not supported

Answer: (B)

DME hold is about maintaining a specific distance from a DME-equipped navaid, not about disabling other navigation guidance. The DME function operates separately from the VOR/ILS guidance, so engaging DME hold doesn’t cut off the VOR course information or prevent tracking on VOR or ILS if you switch to another frequency. You can typically keep DME hold active while tuning a different VOR or ILS frequency and still use the VOR course data for tracking or the ILS localizer course. So the statement is false: DME hold does not prevent using VOR course information for ILS or VOR tracking when you select another frequency.
