But developing reliable over-the-horizon radar proved tricky because the composition of the ionosphere is always in flux, making it more like a mass of moving clouds than a smooth reflecting mirror. The OTH radar overcomes this problem by using computer power: the software enables technicians to chart constantly the intensity and thickness of the ionosphere, telling operators where conditions are best and which radio frequencies to use for maximum performance...

At one recent training session, a future agent was told he should go home, stand in front of his mirror and practice shouting in a forceful voice "Freeze! This...
