TACAN Channel
The channel of the TACAN system is coded using the TACAN.channel attribute.
The corresponding data type CodeTACANChannelType contains a list of values from '1X' to '126Y'.
Position
See topic Navaid Position & Elevation.
Elevation
As the TACAN provides distance information, the elevation of its antenna is relevant. It is coded for the TACAN.location using the ElevatedPoint.elevation attribute.
