Description: The Weather Bureau's first experimental Doppler Radar unit. This radar was a 3-cm continuous wave Doppler unit obtained from the Navy and modified for meteorological purposes by NSSL. This side-by-side transmitting and receiving antennas was used for tornado studies in the Southern plains during the late 1950s. It was modified into a pulsed Doppler radar in 1964.
