A radial is referenced
- from a beacon.
- to a VOR.
- on a compass.
Explanation from PART66Online
A radial is a magnetic bearing measured outward from a VOR ground beacon, so it is referenced from the station, with the 360 radials radiating away from it. Describing it as 'to a VOR' reverses the sense, and a radial is defined by the beacon's signal, not by the aircraft compass.
