Someone commented on a "high power" Radar. Long range radar generally has a low duty cycle or pulse rate. As a result the energy over time is much less than any sort of cw or target acquisition radar.
Decades ago, I worked with many people that had been exposed to radar RF energy while in the military. The rate of cataracts among them was much higher than normal.
It wasn't until the late 70s and 80s that the AF finally got around to installing RF monitors in shops that worked on higher power microwave equipment.
