At my home airport, we had radar service terminated all the time. Radar
didn't reach below 3000 feet or so and they (usually) let us know when
they couldn't pick us up anymore. We were still IFR.


The phraseology for loss of radar contact is "radar contact lost", not
"radar service terminated".


Tell that to Chicago Center.
