The use of signature bands is an advanced method to speed up scanning a newly entered system. A "signature band" is a group of [[Cosmic Signatures]] that have the same base signal strength. Signatures with a low-band are harder to scan down as they will start at low signal strength, and vice versa for high-band. Through the work of many explorers, most (if not all) of the [[Cosmic Signatures]] have been classified according to their base signal strengths. | |||
The idea is the use the bands to sort out signatures you want or do not want. E.g., if you are looking for a 4/10 DED Complex in Hi-sec, you will want to focus on the 1/40 band. | |||
Before Odyssey, the method involved dropping a single Combat probe or a single Deep Space Probe and setting it at maximum range. This way still works, but CCP gave us a new way. This page will discuss both. | |||
