    Perhaps a bit different (although I suspect not), I've used marine radars for quite some years, at least until the early '90s, and once calibrated they did tend to stay that way. In a way, it's akin to setting a radio receiver; once set, it stays set, except with a radar it's both an emitter and a receiver, but the basic argument applies.

    I have no argument about their use in principle, but I do object to their placement in some cases.

    If you guys want to talk about real Radars, lasers, etc etc just yell out. 2megawatt is a decent size to begin with and lasers around 5 megawatt, other stuff is just toying with it...
