My Radar question.

Just curious... Don't the marine radars have blanking, an adjustable
point where the radar emits no signal - so a mast wont reflect directly
back into the mast-mounted antenna? Or have masking, where the receiver
ignores returns that are too close - like from the mast or rigging?
