2.6 Reducing Precipitation Clutter

The vertical beamwidth of the antenna is designed to see surface targets even when the
ship is rolling. However, by this design the unit will also detect precipitation clutter (rain,
snow, hail, etc.) in the same manner as normal targets. Precipitation clutter shows as
random dots on the screen.

2.6.1 Adjusting the A/C RAIN

When echoes from precipitation mask solid targets, adjust the A/C RAIN to split up these
unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier.
1. Press the GAIN key.
2. Press the C: A/C RAIN soft key to show the A/C RAIN window.

not overadjust – weak echoes may be missed.
4. Press the GAIN key on the front panel or E: RETURN soft key to finish.
