Fun Time! Make Your Own Radar!

It's Saturday and you're looking for something fun to do. What could be more fun than making your own radar?

From Hack A Day comes this easy-to-build radar project. From the article....

"Radar is simple, it consists of a radio transmitter and receiver. Radar is a World War Two acronym meaning Radio Direction and Ranging, in other words a radar consists of a radio transmitter and receiver where the range to an object is measured by clocking the time between the transmitter transmitting a known modulated waveform and the receiver receiving this waveform scattered from a target."

I really like the re-purposed coffee cans, myself.
