Correct, it is. However, maybe someone else has, but I have yet to be cleared for the ILS Y or the ILS Z going in there. But for some reason, I have it in my Jepps. And NO, the EMB does not have a TACAN receiver. And like I said, there are some others on the west coast that are NOT joint mil/civ airports that DON'T have TACANs. I don't have my flight kit on me so I can't look them up, sorry.

I think VT got it right with the first point of his post.
