    So what use would a private citizen or business have for a system like this? I’m not sure who the “commercial offerings” are meant for.

      I might assume it could be handy to be alarmed of strikes if there’s a war in your area.

      Im mostly speculating but the stuff that comes to mind is hunting, fishing, weather, private space company, shipping company (air and sea), and tbh even military contracting firms are also considered private commercial businesses. Radar is super useful if you can afford it

        Ahh yes… let me just go hunting with my beamforming radar… I’ll be tracking the rate at which that deer is changing course at over 100khz.

          People set up feed traps in areas that its allowed. You could have a cam facing the trap and a radar nearby so you know if its just a single deer that triggered the cam or a member of a herd. Still just speculating. I dont hunt

      Maybe an island/area looking to set up a small air traffic control center for non commercial airlines? Not sure if the range would be enough, I know nothing about them
