In the following notes the radars shown should run a version of normal scan that allows the setting of the range gate separation to 15km (keeping the lag to first range gate at 180 km). All other radars should run a standard normal scan. The number of range gates should be at least 75 but can be more at the discretion of the operator. The scan time should be 1-min.
