I really like this one - thanks for posting! This is still probably and sadly, more information about Radar's use in General Aviation, than most private pilots learn these days in obtaining their private pilots license.
Anomalous Propagation? Try asking the younger/newer private pilots to describe what that is and why it can be important to their low altitude en route VFR missions and you will get a blank stare 9 times out of 10.
I wish I could have learned to fly back in the early 70's!

THEY USED 1100 CODES AND SHRIMP BOATS IN GUAM UP UNTIL 1996.

Boy is this a old video. They stopped using transponder code 1100 in the 1970's. At 18:38 the controller is pushing plastic tabs (called shrimp boats) on the CRT (screen). This was how they did air traffic control (ATC) when I became an instrument pilot.
Now days its all computer generated video. Nobody uses raw RADAR returns.
In the future ATC will use GPS data and RADAR will be in standby mode

Great video. Still gets me how terrible the phraseology is in almost any depiction of Air Traffic controllers.
