Abstract

The paper describes a method of adapting the radar AA No.. 3 MK III operating on 204 mcs  to track F-type radiosonde signalers on this frequency and thus obtain in addition to radiosonde data, information about upper winds also at levels higher than what is possible with the radar tracking a dipole passive target. The details of construction of the signaler on 204 mcs and the radiosonde recording equipment are briefly described. The advantages of this type of adaptation in meteorological technique is indiacted.
