I have a few radar books describing theory and actual circuits  - I
can scan some if needed too.

 Would be nice David!
 I hope it doesn't cost too much of work, but I really appreciate your
offer.
 Even if I decide not tu build it it will be fine reading

 Eric,

 I have a textbook "Digital Logic Circuits" or similar that describes
it in
 depth. I will see about scanning it.
