Ah yes, I remember those! And Lorans. And actual NDB approaches. The only for-real NDB approach to mins I ever did, almost resulted in me landing on a road that looked surprisingly like a runway in the early morning gloom. Probably had something to do with the 30-degree crab angle required to hold the final approach course. Good times...
