Probably get rid of Edwards Air Force Base. The remote radar site's microwave radiation converts passing birds into smoke.
I'd like to see that. We know ivanpah is instant bird disablement followed by a probably slow death.
I'd like to see all these dead birds from radars.
Ive been driving past, within 40 feet of an air surveillance radar 5 days a week for to last 2 and a half years that blasts out out up to 25kw at 3ghz. Never seen a dead bird anywhere near it. How many years does it take for one of these radars to kill a bird? Or do they only kill birds on Saturdays?
