Sounds like a good plan, thanks!

Yes, thanks! I was going over the 430 manual last night trying to find
something of this sort, but I missed it.

Those flying behind the navcoms in newer Cessnas have a similar/easier
option. The nav side can be set to display the to/from radial instead of
the standby frequency. I liked the awareness that provided, given that I
could see "how close I was" to some chosen radial even before the needle
had "come alive".

You can do that on the CNX-80 too. In NAV mode, hit the MON soft-key
to put it in monitor mode. It then shows you the from radial of the
VOR in the standby slot.
