The AN/FPS-35 was so powerful that it disrupted local TV and radio broadcasts, and had to be shut down several times and re-calibrated. The problems caused this radar to be taken out of service temporarily in 1961. With the problems resolved, the radar was operational again in 1962 and by 1963 an AN/FPS-26 had replaced one of the AN/FPS-6 height-finder radars.
The AN/FPS-35's powerful nature caused interference with local TV and radio broadcasts, leading to its temporary removal from service in 1961. After resolving the issues, it was reinstated in 1962, and by 1963, a replacement radar, the AN/FPS-26, took over one of the AN/FPS-6 height-finder radars.
