Page 111: How To Adjust The Gain
6. Radar How to Adjust the Gain The GAIN/TX key adjusts the gain (sensitivity) of the radar receiver. This key operates like the volume control of a broadcast receiver, which amplifies received signals. The correct setting shows some background noise on the screen. If you do not use enough gain, weak echoes are erased.
Page 112: How To Reduce Sea Clutter
6. Radar How to Reduce Sea Clutter The reflected echoes from waves appear at the central part of the display and have the name "sea clutter". The sea clutter increases in width as the height of waves and the height of the antenna above the water increase. If the sea clutter is strong, targets can be hidden inside the clutter, like in the left-hand figure shown below.

Page 122: Heading Line
6. Radar 6.10 Heading Line The heading line indicates your heading in all orientation modes. This line connects between your position to the outer edge of the radar display. The line is at zero de- grees on the bearing scale in the head-up mode. The orientation of the line changes in the north-up, course-up and true motion modes with the movement of your vessel.
Page 123: How To Reduce Radar Interference
6. Radar 6.11 How to Reduce Radar Interference Radar interference can occur when your vessel is near the radar of another vessel that operates on the same frequency band with your radar. The interference shows on the screen in many bright dots. The dots can be random or in the shape of dotted lines that run from the center to the edge of the display.

Page 127: Echo Trail Reference
6. Radar 6.14.4 Echo Trail Reference Trail movement can be set for relative or true. The relative trails show the relative movements between targets and your vessel. True motion trails show the movements of targets according to the targets over-the-ground speeds and courses. True trails re- quire position and heading information.
Page 128: Echo Stretch
6. Radar 6.15 Echo Stretch The radar adjusts the reflected echoes from long-range targets, but the echoes are normally displayed weak and small. If you have a weak, long-range target that re- quires closer inspection, use the echo stretch to magnify the target. This function magnifies the targets and sea clutter and radar interference.

Page 136: Search And Rescue Transponder (Sart)
6. Radar 6.26.2 Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) A vessel in distress uses a radar-SART to show a series of dots on the radar display of nearby vessels to indicate distress. A SART transmits when it receives a radar pulse from any X-Band (3 cm) radar within a range of approximately 8 nm. When a SART receives a radar pulse, the SART transmits a response across all the radar fre- quency band.
Page 137 6. Radar Racon (Radar Beacon) A racon is a radar transponder that sends a characteristic signal when the racon re- ceives a radar pulse (normally only the three-centimeter band). If the racon signal is sent on the same frequency as that of the radar, the signal appears on the radar dis- play.

To find the bottom characteristic, use a long pulse length and normal gain. For the hard and rough bottom, the bottom echo is reddish-brown with a long tail.
Page 170 7. Fish Finder Density of a school of fish If two schools appear with the same color at different depths, the one in deeper water is denser because the ultrasonic wave attenuates as it propagates and the school of fish in deep water tends to be displayed in a weaker color.
