In radio navigation, a VOR/DME is a radio beacon that combines a VHF omnidirectional range (VOR) with a distance measuring equipment (DME). The VOR allows the receiver to measure its bearing to or from the beacon, while the DME provides the slant distance between the receiver and the station.

This VOR has the ID of PWA, operates on 113.40 MHz, elevation is 1217, and operates 24/7.
