TACAN has 126 X and 126 Y channels. Normally only X channels
are used, unless crowded. TACAN frequencies are tied to VOR
frequencies. (Note: there are more TACAN frequencies than
VOR frequencies, some are blanked around the ATCRBS Beacon
frequencies, and others are for expansion and military use).
Pulse widths are 3.5 microseconds. Aircraft sounds like a Top
Fuel Dragster or Funny Car when searching for lock-on.

Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCRBS - "At Crabs",
Secondary Radar - to the British)
1030 MHz Ground Interrogations to Transponder
1090 MHz Transponder Replies to Ground
There are currently five interrogation modes in use:
Mode 1, 2 pulses spaced 3 microseconds [Military]
Mode 2, 2 pulses spaced 5 microseconds [Military]
Mode 3/A, 2 pulses spaced 8 microseconds [Military/Civilian]
Mode 4, encrypted, IFF [Military]
Mode C, 2 pulses spaced 21 microseconds [Military/Civilian]
A third pulse is also included in all modes (except 4) at
2 microseconds from the first. This is the sidelobe pulse.
if it's within @6 dB of the first pulse (or greater) the
transponder doesn't reply (as it has detected an antenna
sidelobe). Pulse widths are .8 microseconds.
The reply is two framing pulses spaced 20.3 microseconds apart,
with 13 code pulses (0000 - 7777 Octal) and an X pulse at the
center which is not used anymore). A fourth pulse (called SPI
pulse (Special Position Identifier) is used to identify your
s position when asked by a controller to "Squawk Ident", it is
4.35 microseconds after the last framing pulse and lasts for
20 seconds (about 2 scans of a long range radar). Pulse widths
are .45 microseconds.
1575.42 MHz is the Navstar Global Positioning System (GPS)
frequency L1, and 1227.6 MHz is L2.
1240.000 - 1300.000 MHz Amateur Radio, Government
