Back in the navy, at sea on the carrier, I had to check a aircrafts radar. The only way to safely transmit on the ground is to park the plane on the fantail(rear of the flight deck) facing to the rear. We get the plane all tied down, turned up all the radar and IR gear, aimed at the Soviet trawler tailing the aircraft carrier and locked on,,,,,yowza!, that trawler immediately changed course and started zig zagging, funny as all heck!
