2.19 Echo Stretch
Normally, the reflected echoes from long range targets appear on the display as weaker
and smaller blips even though they are compensated by the radar’s internal circuitry. The
echo stretch function magnifies these small blips in all ranges. Two types of echo stretch
are available: ES LOW which stretches echoes in bearing direction and ES HIGH which
stretches them in both range and bearing directions.
