Appendix I: Glossary
Anti-Rain Clutter (FTC): used to reduce or eliminate massive num-
ber of small echoes that clutter the display during rain or snow storms.
Anti-Sea Clutter (STC): lowers receiver sensitivity at shorter ranges
to reduce or eliminate sea clutter echoes, which are most prevalent
around the vessel.
ARPA: automatic radar plotting aid; MARPA: mini automatic radar
plotting aid. ARPA allow you to monitor multiple targets, providing
updates on the target's course and speed, then plotting them in vector

tor a small number of targets. These navigation aids usually are avail-
able in only North-Up stabilized mode.

intermittent causes.

top of the radar display.

360º, the electronic bearing line is used to monitor the bearing of a ra-
dar target in relation to your location.
Echo: reflected radio frequency pulse picked up by radar. It is also an-
other name for a target image detected on the radar display.
Echo trail: a history (trail) of the echoes for a particular radar target.
Gain: used to adjust the sensitivity of the receiver to increase or de-
crease the intensity of images on the display.
Ghost Echo: an undesirable image created when returns are reflected
off other structures.
