Hi Ian,

Even more remote is EIRP and nearness (EIRP demands the source appear
to be a point so that all phases from the reflector add to produce the
EIRP).

Another boner is that "a radio telescope is a receive-only device."
This bald statement would consign Arecibo to the ash heap of radio
telescopes because it has a 430 MHz radar system built into it. I
suppose by the same logic, a radar is a receive-only device between
pulses.
