Locating Basics

Are you ready? Page 34

If you're new to locating and first want to know everything about the locating screens, you've come

to the right place. If you already know locators and want to jump right in and start locating with your

Falcon F2 system, skip down to Interference.

This section covers locating basics:

 Checking for interference and suggestions for dealing with it

 Performing a roll/pitch check

 Finding and marking front and rear locate points (FLP and RLP) and the locate line (LL)

to pinpoint the transmitter

 The geometry of the FLP, RLP, and LL with respect to the transmitter

 Methods to verify depth readings
