The new 105' tractor tug Millennium Star selected a pair of JRC lOkW 3811 mid-range radars that offer twice the resolution as other 12-inch radars. For color radar, choose the long-range JRC 3900 series with 15-inch display. Or the magnificent 7700 series with 21-inch display. Both are full-fea- tured, with optional full ARPA and plotter modes. The economical 10-inch 2250 series gives you brilliant, high resolution target discrimination, automatic tuning and true motion display. r CRANKSHAFT ^ GRINDING While Installed in Engine MARCO-built Millennium Star on sea trials; mast dressed for christening (above)
