I don't think radars put out all the much power. The rating may be 4kW or more - but they are pulsed output (probably only transmitting for 1/100th of the time). I don't think they have to be that far away from you to give a field strength significantly less than a cellphone held to your ear.

Though on my euro-boat, the radar is well above my head
