Hey photofly!
I don't think I follow

Here's what I understand:
Say you pick a radial, 030 and you set your VOR to it. You are on the top right side, heading 030, away from the VOR on the 030 radial.
1) You set 030 on the VOR, so it knows you want a 30 degree phase shift from the omni signal.
2) The plane will recieve the omni and directional signals with a phase shift of 30 degrees.
3) You will be showing as being on the radial.
For the flag to show "To" on the 030 radial, the plane would need to be actually recieving the 210 signal.
For the flag to show "From" on the 030 radial, the plane would need to be actually recieving the 030 signal.
So now suppose you are on the 030 radial on the top right and heading 030. If it shows "From" like I said above, it makes sense.
But if you are on the 030 radial on the top right of the picture and heading 210, with the 030 radial picked, you are still recieving the 030 signal, so it would think you are going "From," with my logic from above.

For me it would only make sense if the VOR picked up the 210 signal.
I'm not sure if it's because I missed the fundamental functioning of the VOR to begin with or what.
