Hello.

This is pulsed radar service.
I was playing with the idea of the old world war 2 ten meter radars.
The transmitter is an old broadcast transmitter for shortwave service.
If I had the antenna and power for it I could easily pump out at least 20 kw. ;)
Quite a few of the old shipboard transmitters are rated at 10+ kw AM and CW.
The old AM marine band is around 2 MC, MHz today. ;)
With the use of old marine radios, crystal VHF as well as AM HF, you can get on 160 and 2 meters cheap.
Add in a crystal CB and you have 10 meters covered.
Do it right and you can do it all for under the cost of a talkie.
