I seem to remember, about twenty years ago, a pretty serious effort to
install a TV camera over the radar screen with a low watt transmitter at the
harbor Masters. Then all the "yacht" drivers out there in the fog could
watch themselves on their, iddy- bitty, low cost TV sets. Seemed like a
pretty smooth idea to me, as long as they stayed in the harbor. I guess you
would see everything that the air traffic controller was looking at. I
suppose there would be a few 360"s for positive "ident".
