Gain
Gain controls the sensitivity of the Radar receiver. Auto (default)
is the recommended setting. It automatically adjusts the gain to
provide optimal performance. You can also set gain manually. To see
more detail, increase the receiver sensitivity by selecting a higher
gain. If there is too much detail, or the screen is cluttered, lower the
sensitivity (lower the gain) to increase the clarity of the screen.
Sea Clutter
Sea Clutter controls unwanted screen clutter caused by choppy sea
conditions. The slider has three preset positions: Calm, Moderate,
and Rough.
Rain Clutter
Rain Clutter controls unwanted screen clutter caused by rain at close
ranges (use the slider to select 1-100%).
