I have a GROL with a radar endorsement and would still like to find a
good book on modern radar repair. The FCC test is based on vacuum tube
technology that hasn't been used since the 70's


True enough. Most of the technical stuff involved in maintaince of
modern Maritime Radars would be in the OEM's Operations and Maintainance
Manuals and 99% of the Qualified Tech's in the field gained their current
knowledge via OJT, and not from books that would be obsolete before they
gained an circulation. The basics of Radar Technology was worked out at
MIT in the late 30's after trading the British Magnitron Prototype
for all those Lend - Lease Destroyers.

Bruce in alaska who also has one of those things on the wall......
