Talk:AN/FPS-26 Radar

What's up with this page??? The title is FPS-26, but some of the text as well as the main photo are of a completely unrelated radar, the FPS-6. This page needs MAJOR clean-up.

(If I can get some time to spare I can do much of it, but the problem is time.) LarryB55 (talk) 17:19, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

There, the page is much improved. I removed the photo of the FPS-6, but I left the infobox in hopes that a photo of the FPS-26 can easily be added by another contributor. I changed text that erroneously referred to the FPS-6 to read FPS-26. LarryB55 (talk) 17:33, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Note to MrJLH. Sir, the FPS-26 was a height-finder, not a search radar. You may be mistaking the FPS-26 for the FPS-24. It was the FPS-24 that was the search radar of the time. If you go to that Wikipedia page you'll see the FPS-24 there. I was a crew chief on the FPS-26 at Ft Lawton, and was a crew chief on the FPS-24 at Cottonwood.

I changed the output device to a "3-cavity power klystron" to reflect the actual device. The power triode originally cited was used in the AN/FPS-24 search radar I believe. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oldrunner55 (talk • contribs) 16:33, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
