Antenna Radar

What is it called when a radar's radio waves disappear or are absorbed?
I don't know if I am asking this question correctly... So let me try to explain...
You are looking at a screen with a radar sweep. Usually, everything is lightened up as the sweep goes around (or the signal is going out). When something comes into the radar's view, it bleeps and lights up brighter showing that the signal gone out is being reflected/refracted/scattered/etc.
Now, what is is called when the the sweep goes around, but a portion of the signal coming off the antenna disappears into nothingness as if it has been absorbed... the signal lost and gone? (think like absorbed as in a black hole)
It would almost look like a dark spot on the radar screen... What is that "empty" area called...
I want to say it is called a "dead" something... like "dead air" or "dead space" or a "dead spot" in the radar... or "black area" or something...
Do any of you know what I mean? If so, do you know the correct technical terms?
Thanks...

Ok Now get ready for a little reverse brain power! Something the size of an anything at all sitting anyhere or flying anywhere if it absorbed the radar signal and did not reflect it would not show anything at all because radar screen can only show what it gets in return!
Now if the object was close enough to the antenna what it would create that would be obvious would be a triangular empty shaped "shadow" a wedge shaped triangle of blank area pointing toward the area of the target that would give it away. But it would have to be very large.
See I worked in Shipbuilding protecting U.S. NavyShips with materials that absorbed radar and made them invisible just like some aircraft!
So if a Ship can dissapear 600 feet long I suppose just about any thing can!
But there is never a HOLE in a radar screen a target even if it is cloked leaves a SHADOW! There will BE ABSOLUTELY NO DETAILS OF ANY KIND IN BACK OF IT AND THE AREA WILL GROW LARGER BASED UPON THE ANGLE OF THE SWEEP OF THE ANTENNA AND THE WIDTH AND HEIGHT OF THE TARGET BLOCKING THE RADAR SIGNAL THERE WILL BE NO RETURN FROM THIS VOID AREA BECAUSE THE SIGNAL WAS ABSORBED BY THE TARGET, IT WILL BE A TRIANGULAR VOID AREA ON THE SCOPE POINTING TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF THE SCREEN.

| | Radar Tracker $60.54 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A radar tracker is a component of a radar system, or an associated command and control (C2) system, that associates consecutive radar observations of the same target into tracks. It is particularly useful when the radar system is reporting data from several different targets or when it is necessary to combine the data from several different radars or other sensors. A classical rotating air surveillance radar system detects target echoes against a background of noise. It reports these detections (known as plots ) in polar coordinates representing the range and bearing of the target. In addition, noise in the radar receiver will occasionally exceed the detection threshold of the radars Constant false alarm rate detector and be incorrectly reported as targets (known as false alarms). The role of the radar tracker is to monitor consecutive updates from the radar system (which typically occur once every few seconds, as the antenna rotates) and to determine those sequences of plots belonging to the same target, whilst rejecting any plots believed to be false alarms.

Weather radar antenna placement on tower at Greater Southwest Airport - Amon Carter Field, 1960
how does a radar aka oscilloscope work?
i got this old radar from the air force how do i make it do the beep thinm and how do i make the sweep work do i have to have antennas or what
the sweep on the display is linked to the antenna position (electrically), so yes, you need to have the antenna rotate, or at least where the actual antenna mounts to. Oh, and radar doesn't really make that beep noise, unless its in a movie or on TV.
