No idea, but I would like to know how on an ILS approach without GPS one
would identify PYRAM.


You use your low altitude chart.


PYRAM is defined by the 286.0° radial from HZN (Hazen VOR) at 41.7 NM. It
is on V165 a few miles south of LIBGE


Are you looking at a Jeppesen chart?

NACO low altitude enroute chart L-9 shows LIBGE to be where the HZN
286R crosses V165. NACO high altitude enroute chart H-3 shows PYRAM
to be where the HZN 286R crosses J5. V165 and J5 are defined by the
FMG 332R.


Isn't that interesting. On both Jepp approach plate and low enrout
chart, PYRAM is identified as HZN 286R and FMG 332R. I measured it
with FliteStar and it's indeed 303T from HZN, which is correct
(Station Declination: 17.0°E). LIGBE is defined as by the IRNO /
RW16R Localizer at KRNO at 27.4 NM by Jeppesen, but it's also FMG
332R.
