I won't have that! The Raytheon ASR10 has to be the worst one. It is entirely plot extracted and the MTI cannot be overridden, so you get massive permanent 'holes' where they found lots of anomalous returns when they set it up, and simply 'blanked' the area where these returns occurred. Also the threshold speed has to be set pretty high, typically 50 kts.
