    Why is there transceiver performance loss in my Simrad HALO 5000 Marine Radar?
    • K
      kimberlybrownAug 23, 2025
      The performance monitor may indicate a degradation of at least 10dB on TX and/or RX in good weather conditions. If it is a false alarm, and you have a good radar image, clean the antennas and check the cabling between the performance monitor module and antenna. If the alarm is valid, and you have no or poor visibility, check for traces of water inside the pedestal.
