The quote was written by Woodsy way back BEFORE the speed limit study. At that time it was to the opponents advantage to argue that RADAR doesn't work on the water, and that the speed would read considerably LOWER than reality.

But when the speed study seemed to favor the oppositions position (IT DOESN'T), suddenly RADAR became incredibly reliable and accurate. And the lower speed reading, caused by the angle, became unimportant.

I posted Woodsy's pre-study, and post-study opinions on RADAR so we can compare. The highlighted sections show clearly the change in position.
