Tracor's Satellite/Omega navigation system combines the accurate, all weather, worldwide satellite fixes of Transit with the continuous position fixing capability of

Omega. The 60 second Omega fix is updated automatically to agree with the position provided by each good satellite fix.

Between satellite fixes, Omega inputs are used to enhance automatically the dead reckoning of the satellite navigator. Warning alerts are lighted whenever Omega or

Transit experience an anomaly or if the preset range limit between the Satellite/

Omega position and the satellite only

DR position is exceeded.
