Default QinetiQ Funtington radar reflector tests

Someone sent this to me a few days ago and I was going to post it but you
beat me to it.

Wayne's reply to Skip's Look Out thread prompts this request to those in
this group who radar consistently:

The numbers in the British study aside, what do those of us in midsize
fiberglass sailboats generally look like to you in the real world? Do you
often see a boat with a radar reflector hanging that didn't show up on the
scope? Are we little blips that you could easily overlook? How would you
rate the chances of a vessel over running its visibility in fog not seeing a
radar reflector equipped boat?
