6.27.3 RACON (Radar Beacon)

A RACON is a radar transponder that sends a characteristic signal when the RACON

receives a radar pulse (normally only the three-centimeter band). If the RACON signal

is sent on the same frequency as that of the radar, the signal appears on the radar

display. The RACON signal appears on the radar in one of two methods:

• A line that starts just after the position of the RACON

• A Morse code signal displayed with a line just after the position of the RACON.
