This article says that the phased array radar is NEW in this
application(weather radar),and was just introduced at a first site.

I may have ASSumed that he was referring to weather radar used by TV
stations and metrological stations,not airborne civilian aircraft
instrumentation.

Apologies.

Maybe eBay spelled it wrong, and it was an old, fazed radar sold by
somebody's buddy A. Ray, who used to be run a radar in an EC-121 or the
like? I tell ya, it's pitiful to see a hard-working radar, that didn't
plan for retirement, up on the auction block. Radars like that don't
believe in reality any more, just thinking life is nothing but
reflections.
