SLI is open 24/7 so one must appreciate that. Service is consistent and what one expects from a VOR. Definitely recommend this VOR for your SoCal and LA navigation needs.
SLI is hands-down the best VORTAC to utilize in the LA basin. You won't catch me navigating with other VORs when I shoot the ILS 30 into KLGB. Note: Some days out of the year, the SLI VORTAC is out of service. And as …
My favorite VORTAC. I personally am a big fan of the specific tone that it emits with the morse code. I listen to it all day on a handheld at my house. Helps me go to bed in the evenings.
Seal Beach VORTAC has always been a personal favorite. It is there when you need it - flying along V8, coming back from Catalina, or shooting the VOR-A into KFUL.
5/10 doesn't work when I'm above it >:(
She’s always there for me, especially on cloudy days. Very reliable, honest and dependable. Low maintenance too.
Not a big fan of VOR approach but I’ll still give you a 5 for being there.
I love VORS, and I love SLI VORTAC
All roads lead to SLI.
As ATC who owns 8000 and below over SLI, I have to give it up for my main squeeze, the Seal Beach VORTAC. This nifty beacon of hope and directional prowess is more reliable than my ability to predict weekend weather or finish my coffee while it's still hot. Let's talk precision. SLI is so spot on, I swear pilots could find it blindfolded, flying backwards, in a snowstorm. It's like GPS, but with personality and a hint of mystery. Every time I clear someone for a practice approach, there's a unanimous cheer in the cockpit – I assume. And durability? SLI laughs in the face of adversity. 0.5 inches of rain, MF region 20, birds, the occasional confused drone? No problem. It's like the Chuck Norris of navigation aids – nothing can take it down.

Note: Some days out of the year, the SLI VORTAC is out of service. And as another reviewer has mentioned, the VOR is almost useless when you're directly overhead... But other times, it's great.
