1.
Determine clr (1) by measuring width of runway and dividing by two.
2.
Measure and record the distance of straight line from radar set group (2) to td point (3) (distance A).
3.
Set up theodolite (or transit) (4) on clr directly opposite radar set group.
4.
Direct second person to hold stadia rod (5) in a vertical position on clr, 100 feet (30.5 m) or more toward td point,
facing theodolite.
5.
Site vertical crosshair of theodolite on stadia rod. Record azimuth degree Indication at theodolite reference
mark.
6.
Rotate theodolite 90 degrees in azimuth toward radar set group (2) and lock in azimuth. Check that vertical
crosshair is lined up with vertical center of radar set group (2).
NOTE
If crosshair is lined up with vertical center of radar set group proceed with step 7; if not, move theodolite
in appropriate direction along clr and repeat procedure, beginning with step 5.
7.
Mark point (6) on clr where theodolite is located. Measure the distance from this point to center of radar set
