Tips for measuring the bearing

Bearing measurements of smaller targets are more accurate; the center of larger tar- get echoes is not as easily identified.

Bearings of stationary or slower moving targets are more accurate than bearings of faster moving targets.

To minimize bearing errors keep echoes in the outer half of the picture by chang- ing the range scale; angular difference be- comes difficult to resolve as a target approaches the center of the display.

Target on collision course with your vessel?

You can determine if a target might be on a collision course with your vessel by placing the EBL on the target. If it tracks along the EBL as it approaches the screen center it may be on a collision course with your vessel.
