Everyone else has focused (!) on wavelength, but no one has mentioned radiated power. Wavelength is to color as power is to brightness. Anyone know how many watts a VOR transmitter radiates? I would suspect is it no more than a few hundred, about equivalent to a common outdoor floodlight. The energy of even the reflected sunlight reaching your eye, Jay, was probably several orders of magnitude more than the energy from the VOR. Ross Oliver
