http://mmncny.org/collections/radararpa

Museum of Maritime Navigation and Communication. Employment & Internship. Wind Direction and Speed Indicator. Developed just before WWII. Radar operates by generating a microwave radio frequency pulse and directing it in a narrow beam from a rotating antenna. After the pulse is transmitted the receiver detects the echoes and amplifies them to produce bright spots or areas on the indicator. The time between the transmitted pulse and echoes is interpreted as distance (range) from own ship. July 29, 2016.
