Historically a CH radar required both types of the Radar units seen in game. RADAR 1 represents the 4 Transmission (Tx) towers. Radar 2 represents a single Reciever (Rx) tower. In the real installation each TX tower had its own Rx tower. Ideally in game Radar 2 should be a group of 4 towers to match the 4 Tx towers that are contained in Radar 1.

I dont know how its coded in game as the whether you need to actually place both Rx and Tx towers for a COD radar to become active. I just did it this way to be graphically correct.
Both Tx towers and Rx towers should have the same alignment.

In addition CH stations were very directional. The coverage being at right angles to the array.
Side lobes were pretty big so it wasn't a raygun by any means but still very directional ... hence the need for the number of CH stations in the chain. This insured overlap with few if any gaps. This directionality also being the reason that CH couldn't see inland ... the area behind the Towers being blind. Once the targets crossed the coast CH radar was useless ... the plots then only possible from Observer corps observations.
