Radar interference may occur when near another shipborne radar that is operating<br />

in the same frequency band as your radar. Its on-screen appearance looks like<br />

many bright dots either scattered at random or in the form of dotted lines extending<br />

from the center to the edge of the display. Interference effects are distinguishable<br />

from normal echoes because they do not appear in the same place on successive<br />

rotations of the scanner.<br />

Be sure to turn off the interference rejector when no interference exists weak targets<br />

may be missed.<br />
