I need to know more about the situation to answer. It would be great if you post a screenshot of when you are having the problem.

you mean the signal with hail error ? it can be in any distance till 7000 m (even outside the lidar range)

this signal is from a pod with damaged transponder, you can not see at the lidar a arrow where it is, this type of objects are hard to find since they can be in any direction up to 7000 m away.

If you can't see it, try listening to the ping instead. When there's a ping, you should go to the direction where the RADAR/LIDAR just sweep.

This. Your LIDAR system will emit a PING when the sweep hit an very high albedo object (such as a ship). Keep in mind that since a LIDAR use a light ray to detect objects, if the anomaly you're trying to find is behind another object, the LIDAR will not be able to "see" it.
