WF2 radar
Copied from an old 1965 slide. This WF2 (WF short for Wind Finding) radar was in a suburb of Melbourne not far from Essendon Airport. It was used to train people such as me and had a range of 200km. I find myself thinking how inappropriate it would now be considered to have such a potentially dangerous beast so close to houses, with just a fence (seen best viewed large) between. In the PiP, a weather balloon launched from the same site, with (from the top) the 350gm balloon, a parachute, the radar reflector and the radiosonde to send back atmospheric data.
Happy Fence Friday and have a good weekend, everyone.

HFF and have a very good weekend, George.
In the 60s & 70s my Dad worked in CSIRO National Standards, Radio Frequency Group. He told me of a 'heating system' they had to evaluate. This was before microwave ovens became a thing.
It proposed radiating a continuous low level signal at 60GHz. This was intended to warm the skin of people in a room and cost much less to operate than regular electric heating for the same comfort level.
It failed! (I wondered if the proponents had shares in cataract and cancer treatment businesses).
