Check on FB Marketplace, there are a ton of folks who are getting out of the Farrier (horse shoeing) business and have forges, etc that they are selling.

The speed of radar is the same as the speed of light, which is approximately 186,282 miles per second because radar uses electromagnetic waves to transmit signals and they travel at the speed of light.

So, it will take approximately 0.001073 seconds to travel 200 miles at that speed. (Time=Distance/Speed).

So essentially you are not putting much effort into it. lol.
