Re: Radar...can you read it or not??
Remember that some of the adjustments simply increase or decrease sensitivity but sometimes that comes at the expense; too sensitive and some items will not be discernible from others, not sensitive enough may result in missed targets. It's a learning curve for sure but once you learn how to read what's on the screen, basic theory, and features common to all brands, you'll be able to ready just about any recreational radar signature. When you go boating, turn it on and keep it on while underway, and look at it as surrounding and conditions change. Practice, practice, practice.
