Radar Testing

Here my radar first finds the larger tanker (90 aob)
This pic shows a power reading (Contocte?) 158
I was slow here - the first reading was about 85 to 90


When "Contocte:" reached 260 - I got the radar call out.
Perhaps this could be reduced to about 100 or so to better the chance of a radar call out



512 is the max ower reading you can get with this radar
Note the radar target bearing


Here you can see the target is bearing 357 (3 deg port)
My radar is pointing 3 deg startboard



The radar bearing is wrong - it is reversed on the bearing wheel.
See here when I point radar at 357deg - no contact



So perhaps this power setting of 260 being the trigger could be reduced to make the radar op quicker to call out.

Fixing the radar wheel? - Is this something BigRed could look at
