positions are the HV ON/OFF position, the 400/1600
PRF position, and the RAW RADAR position.
RAW RADAR SWITCH.— This switch allows
the operator to select the type of display presentation.
The options available are either an A-scan, selected

DESCRIPTION
The signal flow block diagram is shown in
figure 3-8. The following section will explain in
more detail the functional signal flow of the various
components.
The forward and aft radar control boxes and the
antenna control box provide mode control to the APP
for execution and distribution throughout the radar
set. The APP processes and coordinates forward and
aft antenna position and scan functions, the
application of power to both sets, and controls
transmit and receive modes of the two RT's.
