None and yes.
i personally, i set it at the longest range and leave it there.

2) Is there a secret to getting the Focus Mode to work?
After I found my targets using the sweep mode, I tried to use focused mode, hoping it would perform like telling my sound man to continually report on the nearest contact. Instead, I stopped getting any radar contact reports at all. I went back to sweep mode. And he started reporting again.
i am not sure why that setting is there except for visual realism because it does not work the way it might in real life. another consideration is that it may work if you were to constantly man the radar however because you need to monitor other sensors and do other things, you cannot constantly man the radar.

leave it on Sweep and go do other things.

good luck.
