I don't. Note the use of "appear" in my post. All I can comment on is
what appears to be the case. Obviously I cannot comment on the actual

facts.

That's why I used the word "appear".


You didn't use the word "appear" when you wrote; "ATC doesn't have enroute
radar capable of determining when another aircraft is within those limits."
You stated it as a fact.



If you mean why does it appear most controllers are much better informed
than you are, if you'll read back in this thread, you'll see why.


That cannot be ascertained by reviewing this thread.



The other controllers aren't asking for detailed explanations of how ATC

radar
works and what its capabilities are.


And the other non-controllers are not making statements about the
capabilities of ATC radar. You are.



If you literally mean "what makes me think..." that's no more valid a
question then "have you stopped beating your wife?" I never said what I
think. I simply said how things appear.


Actually, with regard to ATC radar, you said how things are. What made you
think you knew something about ATC radar?
