Dick,
That is because there is no way an air traffic controller knows where a VFR aircraft is in the Class C unless the air traffic controller has both primary and secondary radar.
Yes he does. Procedural C works well at ASP and has done for years. ATC do need some sort of low-level surveillance there (ADSB is the obvious candidate) but until then, procedural C works OK. Your long-held view about the connection between C and radar is a furphy, as you have been told many times before. Just because your beloved Septic Tanks don't have procedural C, why can't we, especially given all the fluffing around going on about implementation of ADSB?
