What would be cool is a low power artificial radar transmitter that could
generate a single target. Something like the military uses to generate
thousands of targets. It would have to be broad band since there is no way
of telling what frequency the ship radar is working on. Since the level of
reflected radar is such a tiny level, it probably wouldn't take much of a
signal. The FCC might not like it...8^)
