See Chapter 5. Various tools for fine tuning the radar 
gauge. Often these tools are not required except in 
more difficult applications – such as tanks where 
other structures cause false echoes, where agitator 
blades cause problems in locking onto the proper 
echo, or for low dielectric constant process materials.
