The Meteorology department first began its study of convective
storms with the use of a 3cm wavelength radar in the early
50's. In 1962, they upgraded to a 10cm, and in 1966, dual wave-
length capability was added. After several modifications, the
radar was placed on top of the newly completed Eller O&M
Building in 1973. In 1992, the Aggie Doppler RADar was born with
the installation of doppler capability. A final upgrade to the
pedestal, removal of the side dishes, new processor, and work
station occurred in 1997.
