citizensun: Nope, thats how I understand it as well - the radar needs 12 seconds to warm up, adjust the tilt (or rather its scan pattern) to provide the first usable results... And yes, most likely you are already going faster than 80 knots at that point (or even 100) so that you won't get much out of it.
