1.20 Measuring the Range
The range to a target may be measured three ways: with the fixed range rings,
with the cursor, or with the VRM.
Use the fixed range rings to obtain a rough estimate of the range to a target.
They are the concentric solid circles about own ship, or the sweep origin. The
number of rings is automatically determined by the selected range scale and
their interval is displayed at the upper-left position of the screen. Count the
number of rings between the center of the display and the target. Check the
range ring interval and judge the distance of the echo from the inner edge of the
nearest ring.
