Radar: Simple Question

[Conehead]

Hi, on page 89 of the manual there's a paragraph that states "Just to the right of the cursors are two small numbers arranged vertically. These numbers show the top and bottom altitude of the bar scan at that cursor range." A graphical example of that is shown in Figure 13-8.

 

My question is, do these numbers represent "hundreds" or "thousands" of feet? I assume the latter but would appreciate confirmation.

 

Thanks!

Yes, thousands. So if it says "40" and "8", it means the radar is scanning between 40,000ft and 8000ft.

Thank you! You wouldn't believe how much that info helps. ;)
