FIXING BY TWO OR MORE RANGES

[Audio] In this slide, we examine the procedure of taking ranges from three or more land features for RADAR PPI. We chose the North tip of Sarwar's Sand as Point A, Zefford Point as Point B, and Boar pt South tip as Point C. To finish the process, we took ranges from all these points simultaneously..

Range from point A is 1.3 nm.. A. FIXING BY TWO OR MORE RANGES.

here range from pint A is 1.3 nm. So, draw a position line by 1.3 nm range.

[Audio] Range from point B was calculated to be 3.3 nautical miles, confirming our earlier findings and showing our capacity to accurately measure distances over larger areas..

Now draw a range line by 3.3 nm from point B. A. B.

[Audio] To draw a range line from point C to points A and B, measure the distance of 4.5nm from each of the points A and B simultaneously. This will draw a range line from point C to the two points..

[Audio] Reaching the fix for our position requires taking ranges from points A, B, and C. Plotting a dot surrounded by a circle on the chart reflects the exact location of the ship at 1430. Thank you for paying attention and accompanying us through this voyage..
