🔍 Key Concepts

• RACON (radar beacon) – what it does to your radar picture • How a RACON’s reply looks relative to the radar’s own center and the target • Difference between a mark that starts at the light vs. a mark that starts at the radar origin

💭 Think About

• Visualize your radar screen: where is your ship, and where is the light with the RACON located? • If a RACON is replying to your radar, from what point on the scope should the response logically begin? • Among the options, which pattern would best help you quickly read the bearing and range of the RACON-equipped aid?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you know that the ship’s position is at the center of the radar scope • Check which choice shows a return that clearly indicates bearing and range from your own ship • Eliminate any option that describes something the radar cannot normally do (like making sounds when the sweep passes a point)
