Default How wide is an NDB approach course?

Just ran across this (from Instrument Procedures Handbook, FAA-H-8261-1,
page 4-6):
------
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) definition of
established is considered as being within half full scale deflection
for the ILS and VOR, or within +/- 5 degrees of the required bearing
for the nondirectional radio beacon (NDB).


Thanks. That's very intersting and helpful.
