Q

Describe resolution as it pertains to presentation of radar

A

Since the data received by the antenna is sent from a transponder there is no problem with the resolution between targets. The alpha-numeric’s often overlap, and are not discernible at times. This can be usually be overcome by changing the direction of the stem on the alpha-numeric’s.

Q

Define slant range

A

Targets are displayed at their slant range. All beacon control slashes are displaced in direct relationship to the ASR-9 main bang. In relationship to the main bang, each beacon control slash is 1/2 mile beyond the primary radar target.

29
Q

What type of equipment is included in RADAR

A

ASR-11
AN/TPX-24A
AN/FPN-67

30
Q

What type of display does the ASR-11 use at ft campbell and what does it display

A

OD-152, plan position indicator

Display primary targets at the correct range and azimuth

31
Q

What does the AN/TPX-42 (with the PIDP) display

A

A computer generated data block correlated with the primary radar target on the OD-152

32
Q

What does the AN/FPN-67 use and what does it display

A

Azimuth-elevation indicators to display a primary target I two dimensions.

Top half of the scope gives a side view of the airfield approach and elevation target.

Bottom half gives a top view of the airfield approach and displays an azimuth target

33
Q

What are the alignment and adjustment procedures

A

STARS equipment conducts continuous self-monitoring of alignment accuracy. Therefore controller alignment is not required.

34
Q

What is the required display for radar

A

Display is controllers preference

35
Q

How is the accuracy determined for radar

A

TVA smokestacks are used to verify the accuracy of the system. They are located at 207 degrees at 18.5

36
Q

STARS TCW

A

Standard terminal automated replacement system terminal control workstation

37
Q

Where is the power supply located for the STARS TCW

A

Located under. The eagle 1 and 2 position

38
Q

What happens when you press the COR SWITCH

A

Permits the video display of only correlated radar and beacon/radar merged reports

39
Q

Define correlated radar and uncorrelated reports

A

Result when ASR 9 logic using certain criteria matches primary radar reports on three successive scans.

If such match cannot be achieved…it is considered uncorrelated

40
Q

What happens when you press the uncorrelated switch (UNCOR)

A

Permits the video display of all radar reports

41
Q

What happens when the MAP switch is pressed

A

Video display of correlated radar and uncorrelated radar reports falling within a predetermined range-azimuth sectors

42
Q

How are range azimuth sectors selected

A

Inputting defined mapped areas via external terminal at then SCIP CONTROL PANEL

43
Q

How is the the weather on the TCW DCB labeled

A

1-6 and provides a visual display as to which level of weather has been selected for display on the controller consoles.

54
Q

The observation of the progress of radar identified aircraft, whose primary navigation is being provided by the pilot, wherein the controller retains and correlates the aircraft identity with the appropriate target or target symbol displayed on the radar scope

A

Radar flight following

55

Supervisors desk box for correction and filing

61
Q

What happens After records are reviewEd by ATC chief

A

Initialed in the right margin and filed in chronological order

62
Q

Where are all completed forms stored

A

Facility Chiefs filing cabinet

63
Q

What is the controller required to do if he or she is involved in an aircrafts accident/incident

A

Shall only discuss the accident incident with their shift leader, facility chief or ATC chief. Info concerning accidents incidents will not be discussed with any other person unless cleared by ATC chief
