How to complete Scan FTL Array at any USEC Radio Tower contract in Marathon

One of the early contracts in Marathon requires you to scan the FTL Array at any USEC Radio Tower, and the task can be slightly tricky. This is likely going to be your first contract where the game doesn't tell you where you need to be. The task is actually rather simple once you know where you need to reach and be. This guide will simplify the process and allow you to get all the applicable rewards.Table of contentsHow to locate the FTL Array in MarathonHow to scan the FTL Array in MarathonHow to locate the FTL Array in Marathon The first task is to receive and keep the contract active.
