Not displaying a VOR ident

Hi

I had an odd problem on a flight from EGPH to EGKK in the A320 , the route was... GOSAM P600 FENIK UL612 DCS UN864 SUBUK KEPAD UL151 KIDLI.... the flight went fine but for some reason it would not display the ident or needle for DCS just the DME , it worked on all other VORs i tried , if i put in DCS  manually add it in the Nav radio it came up with DCS 115.2 as normal but on the ND it just displayed the DME but no needle .... if i put in just the freq .. 115.2 it showed CHW 115.2 ..... i am using Navigraph 1911 for the nav data, i will try and get a screen shot next flight i do.

Hi Rich,

 

could the station maybe only be coded as a DME in your simulator without a VOR part? That's why you might get just the DME indication without the needle.

 

Edit: I just checked an enroute chart. Dean Cross (DCS) is indeed only a DME and not a VOR. Thus you can not get a needle.

What you see therefore is totally normal.
