Approach plate question.

Makes sense, but my question was more along the line of could they rather than would they.

I can't cite anything that explicitly states they could not. The applicable sections of the ATC order are "Chapter 5. Section 10. Radar Approaches− Terminal", and "Chapter 5. Section 11. Surveillance Approaches− Terminal". Their titles imply they could not.

It wouldn't be possible at MSN anyway because ZAU does not have a feed on the Madison ASR. There's no need for it because the Horicon ARSR is just forty miles away. But even if they did have a feed on the Madison ASR it would be very hard for ZAU controllers to maintain currency on surveillance approaches. Each controller must conduct three per quarter, one must be no-gyro. During the wee hours when they have the airspace there just isn't the traffic that would be needed.

It appears we're mixing airports and IAPs. 321 is the frequency for SKIPI, the LOM on the ILS RWY 26 at FTG. That IAP still shows a feeder route from FQF VOR.

The feeder route on the ILS RWY 35R at APA has been removed, but the CASSE LOM, frequency 260, still appears on charts and in the chart supplement.
The receiver was removed, not the silly LOMs. Ha.

And that LOM is a ***** to pick up on the ADF. I had to fly that approach on my check ride. It was fly a vector and be very patient.

When our ADF was operational, I never had any trouble receiving it. Maybe your receive setup is degraded somehow? How old is yours?

It's so old it's gone. Some beacons were fine, others not so much. I don't doubt it could of had problems.
