🔍 Key Concepts

• SART (Search and Rescue Transponder) operating frequency band • Difference between X-band (≈3 cm wavelength) and S-band (≈10 cm wavelength) marine radar • How a SART signal appears on a searching ship's radar display (pattern of blips/lines)

💭 Think About

• Which marine radar band is specifically designed to trigger and display SART responses on a ship’s radar? • Think about what the vessel does versus what the SART does automatically once it detects a suitable radar signal. • Which option correctly links the radar wavelength/band with the distinctive multi-blip pattern associated with a SART?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which radar band (X-band vs S-band) is associated with SART activation per GMDSS standards. • Check which options describe active interrogation by the ship versus automatic response by the SART when illuminated by radar. • Verify which answer choice correctly mentions the distinctive multi-blip/line pattern produced by a SART on the radar screen.
