Hi Bill,
I think you may of hit the nail on the head with CODAR.  I had to Google it with the following results:

http://www.codar.com/intro_hf_radar.shtml

I guess it is for ocean wave detection (Tsunami)?  They have some radar locations in Southern California.  

My reading of Part 97.301 and 97.303 shows us as primary service of the 17 meter allocation, meaning:

Each frequency band allocated to
   the amateur service is designated as either a secondary service or a
   primary service. A station in a secondary service must not cause
   harmful interference to, and must accept interference from, stations in
   a primary service.

Other thoughts?
