When measuring the radio characteristics of a radar transmitter, the transmission power is measured with a power meter/sensor, the transmission frequency and frequency deviation are measured with a frequency counter , and the pulse duration transitions are measured with an oscilloscope.

Most weather radars have wavelengths that range between 0.8 centimeters (cm) and 10.0 cm. Generally short wavelengths mean smaller and less expensive equipment. Short wavelength radars are more effective in detecting small particles such as cloud droplets and drizzle drops.
