1.37 Enhanced Video
On long ranges target echoes tend to shrink
in the bearing direction, making them difficult
to see. On short and medium ranges such as
1.5, 3 and 6 nm scales, the same size targets
get smaller on screen as they approach the
own ship. These are due to the inherent prop-
erty of the radiation pattern of the antenna.
To enhance target video, use the enhanced
video function. It enlarges target echoes in
bearing and range direction on 1.5-6 nm
scales.
