Navico broadband radar plugin
The v3.0 release is now complete.
The following functional changes have been implemented compared to v2.1:
- Radar antenna offset relative to GPS can be set, for better overlay at a very short range.
- Revert range zooming to be "+" for longer range (zoom out) and "-" for shorter range (zoom in).
- PPI head up mode is stabilized by the compass when a compass is available.
- PPI course up mode is synchronized to OpenCPN course up mode and uses the same algorithm.
- AIS and ARPA targets are (optionally) shown on the PPI windows.
- Radar targets can be selected with the mouse and then added as a MARPA target.
- Guard zones can generate ARPA targets.
Note that for all releases we recommend using OpenCPN 4.8.2 which was released on Feb 7, 2018.
