How to Plot RADAR Fixes Procedure Use  the  following  steps  to  properly  plot  a  radar  fix.  Figure  8-32  is  an illustration  of  what  a  fix  using  three  radar  ranges  looks  like. Step 1. 2. 3. Action Locate  the  distance  scales  or  the  latitude  scale  near  your approximate  location  on  the  chart. Measure  the  distance  on  the  scale  using  a  compass. Locate  the  charted  navigational  point  used  for  the  range. 4. 5. 6. Place  the  sharp  point  of  the  compass  on  the  chart  where  you took  the  range  and  draw  an  arc  in  the  vicinity  of  your  DR position. Repeat  steps  2  thru  4  for  all  the  ranges  obtained. Locate  the  area  where  the  lines  of  position  (arcs)  all  cross each other. 7. Label  the  radar  fix  by  putting  a  small  triangle  around  the intersection  of  the  ranges,  with  the  time  of  the  fix  noted close to the symbol. Figure  8-32.  Example  of  a  radar  fix. 8-50
