... How many instrument-rated pilots remember that any navaid can be
on when OTS? How many instrument-rated pilots remember what the
ident will be in such a situation?

I do! I do!

Never mind. Blueskies beat me to it.

Reminds me of a Ron Machado joke. He'd learned to copy Morse code so he
could verify idents without looking at a chart. On a flight once his
instructor asked why he hadn't identified a navaid. Ron said he had. The
instructor said he saw Ron hadn't looked at the chart. Ron explained that he
could copy Morse code. The instructor tested him by tuning in another navaid
and challenging him to identify it. "What did that say?" "Dah-di-di-dit
di-dah-dah-dah dah-di-dah-dit," Ron replied. I'm still waiting for the
chance to try this gag.
