Jon You may be interested in the following quote from the introduction to the handbook issued by the UK School of Anti Aircraft Artillery . Larkhill
quote..When the Canadian No 4 Mk 6 was designed (in 1944) the circuitry and techniques employed were in advance of normal developments, and at the present time (1949) it is not only by far the best TC radar, but is still far ahead of all other Army Radars in both techniques and performance..unquote.
