Yes, they can adjust the localizer width. An example is listed below for
Billings MT ILS. (BIL) If you scroll through the data, you'll notice the LOC width is listed as 3.34 degrees under AFIS DATA.

The glideslopes are as they are all positioned to bring you to the same spot on every runway. The localizer is sited so it is a certain width at the approach end of the runway, therefore they will move the localizer antenna closer to or farther away from the departure end of the runway to achieve that. They can't "focus" or "tighten" the signal for longer runways??? |
