Default 4'/22kg Radar Antenna on Sea Ray 315 Sundancer Arch?

Though you might not see targets farther, with a larger antenna you
would have a better resolution, and that would be a good thing, don't
you think?



That is true. If you have a huge antenna, you can see whether it's one
ship or 8 ships close together. That might be important for missile
launching, but does it really matter in a boat? INstead of 3 tiny targets
on the tiny screen...you get one big blob you can't miss on the cheap
antenna. Too much resolution isn't a good thing on a small boat whos
antenna is rolling and pitching so awful in the swells.

While in Mexico, I didn't have to press 1 for Spanish.
While in Iran, I didn't have to press 1 for Farsi, either.
While in Florida, I had to press 2 for English.
It just isn't fair.
