Wheto Joseph Seyon Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 This particular sbag has been disturbing the team for the oast few weeks. What could be the cause, we have replaced the control unit, antenna and also TR unit. Checked every component in the system for serviceability but it still persists.

NOT a lot of info tto work with but IF the ground returns are only on one side of the display your ANT gyro stabilization is probably bad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danoo Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Few more questions: 1. Does it really paint ground or there may be some permanent targets upto some permanent elevation? In this case your radom may have some moisture accumulated inside which needs to be replaced. 2. External system providing stabilization data to the radar also needs to be verified. 3. You may place some sort of spacers (washers) under lower bolts of the antenna pedestal to elevate radar beam but aircraft leveling also to be ensured before this shortcut.

tinyclark Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Is there a two way bubble level indicator on the antenna? Our APS-133 had one. Insure that the antenna is level on the ground with stab on and off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
