Subject to the Official Secrets Act, which expired after 50 years, it was only in 1991 that these men and women were able to share their experiences.

While most World War II-era radar equipment has long since been destroyed, the Museum has examples of GEE, Fishpond, H2X, IFF (Identify Friend or Foe) radars, along with magnetrons, vacuum tubes (known as valves in England) and several hundred personal artifacts of various types.

The Museum is also home to a substantial library and archive available to researchers, and numerous oral history interviews with radar veterans.

The museum offers curriculum-linked school programs related to history, geography, and science & technology for students in Grades 5 to 12.

The museum is also planning to develop a travelling exhibition about Cold War radar and the experiences of the people working in the field.
