<div id="Team Only Radar">Team Only Radar</div> is a radar mode that allows you to see friendly units on radar the same way you would in [[Simple Radar]]. However, enemy units will never appear on radar unless you specifically target them with your "select target under reticule" button. The default button is "Q" and will often be referred to as "Q locking" someone. Once you Q lock someone, your radar will remain locked on your target like it would in simple mode until either the target moves out of range or you select a new target.

In Team Only Radar, [[ECM]] is less valuable than it is in [[Simple Radar]] and can allow a mech like a missile boat that only mounts [[BAP]] to be much more effective than it other wise would since it is harder to detect. [[ECM]] will be a bit helpful in that it will prevent people at long range from being able to Q lock you.

*Note: If you suspect that you have been Q locked on by an enemy unit, you can try to break their lock by moving out of their radar range, going passive if your more than 500 meters away (600 if they have [[BAP]]), or simple shutting down for a second.
