The biggest problem for this radar is transmit- receive switch. Currently installed switch are produced in the 60's and 70's of the last century and it is no longer in the production. However there are switches of modern design that could be used as a replacement for existing. Paper is divided in several chapters. In the introductory part there are generally described radar systems. In the second chapter there are described weather radars, their development, types of applications. In the third chapter radar MER-93S-K is described.
