Learn to use radar from the guy that literally wrote the book: Kevin Monahan.
After completion of this seminar, participants will be able to set up their radar for maximum results and interpret the display under a variety of conditions. Participants will learn simple techniques to:
- identify landmasses, other vessels, and transient targets
- use radar effectively for collision avoidance
- understand the new generation of AIS and integrated radar systems which combine chart and radar technology
- manage and understand the issues inherent in modern integrated navigation systems; and
- recognize and compensate for rain and sea clutter, interference, and side-lobe echoes
