Anyway, for these to work well the plane of the array needs to be
normal to the
target. I'm just amazed the darn things work so well, and when will I
be able to get one surplus?

Civilian colour weather radar sets show up occasionally on e-bay. As a

Uh,I don't believe weather radars are phased arrays. It would be
overkill,and an unnecessary expense.

The color part come from computer processing of the radar return
