It also mentions monitoring China's airspace.  These woodpecker photo 
translations are better than the stuff at engrish.com.  Here's the 
woodpecker page that explains how the Chernobyl OTH radar caused the nuclear 
reactor disaster:

I remember the woodpecker well.  I'm really glad it's gone.  Nothing could 
take the wind out of your sails faster in a DX contest on 40 meters.  We 
should have figured out how to transmit back signals that would look like 
fake UFO attacks night after night until they got over themselves and 
switched the damn thing off.
