Radar Question
 

Using the rotatable radar, I have a couple of probelms (patch 1.4b)

First, it keeps turning itself off all the time, even while I'm using it manually.

Second, it's hard to fine adjust the dial;

Thirdly, the contact disappears for no reason on the display, then comes back. peridoically. Usually, it disappears before I have time to read the bearing and range!

Forth and last, the "peak" on the RADAR gets smaller as I get nearer to the target. Shouldn't be the other way round?

Any fixes, ideas what might be wrong?

Well, I'm not very good at operating the radar, but I know this much:

It doesn't do so well in rough seas, and will keep turning itself off if water comes over the conning tower. That could also be the cause of your disappearing contact problem, too. Just a guess on the latter, though.

Ok, thanks. I don't often use the RADAR and the weather was very bad when I was using it earlier today (otherwise why would I be using the RADAR!!)
