Default Raytheon radar specs (bad ass radars)

Seems to be really nice, high power stuff, never used. Radar domes,
radar "arrays" (6 foot pieces), displays, etc. Three sets and some
extras.

Does anyone have any specs on them?

Are they for open sea only? Am I allowed to use one on Lake Michigan?

They are for big boats, right? Their multiple kW rating seems to
suggest that I cannot use them with just a Mercruiser alternator.

What it boils down to is this: I can either sell all of them, or sell
two sets and keep one. I have a 21 foot boat powered by a Mercruiser
228 I/O motor. Would be cool to have a radar array, but, I doubt that
I can actually use it, hence my question.

Thanks

That's the unit (41x) that I have on my boat. 48 mile. It's a great
radar. It's a radar like all the rest. It'll work anywhere.

A big radar for a 21 foot boat. It will work on any 12 volt system.
I'd definitely buy one if I didn't already have one.

There was an article in a magazine 3 or so years ago that profiled the
coast Guard 41 foot rescue boat. That's the radar they use.

When I had it serviced the technician went on and on about the quality
and what a good unit it is.

I'm sure everyone wants a screen that takes less room and has a color
display.

I'm very happy with mine.
