Best advice I would offer is to do as above, plus, use your radar all the time, get used to seeing a target on screen and then see it with your eye so you get faith in seeing the target on the screen and beleive it is there!
Constant use will keep your radar dried out and usable and will enable you to be able to use it in black fog and in the middle of the night, if needed, with confidence.
Also, Navigation Rules require radar use, if vessel is so equipped!!!!
