the next opportunity.

radar should be used only for advisory purposes such
as ground mapping for navigation.
degraded. Color level calibration should be assumed
to be incorrect.
Have the RTA checked at the next opportunity.
An error in the antenna position system has been
detected. The displayed tilt angle setting could be
incorrect. This may also cause ground spoking.
Have the RTA checked at the next opportunity.
A problem has been detected with the turbulence
detection hardware. Assume turbulence display to be
inaccurate. Nonturbulence modes should be
functioning properly.
Have the RTA checked at the next opportunity.
spoking to occur.
Have the system checked at the next opportunity.
An error in the antenna positioning system has been
detected. Groundspoking, or excessive ground
returns during roll maneuvers may occur. This may be
due either to the RTA or the source of pitch and roll
information to the RTA.
No altitude information is available to make the
altitude compensated tilt calculation. Otherwise, the
unit may be operated as normal. Have system
(including altitude source) checked at the next
opportunity.
The SCAN SWITCH located on the RTA is off,
disabling the antenna scan. Check at the next
opportunity.
The XMIT switch located on the RTA is off, disabling
the transmitter. Check at the next opportunity.
