Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

If you are just looking at one radar at a time, then you can either do your original suggestion, with ScalarMaps of Radius to Radius and Azimuth to Longitude. Or you can use just one Radar2DCoordinateSystem to the (Latitude, Longitude) reference RealTuple, with ScalarMaps of Latitude and Longitude to YAxis and XAxis.
I would suggest going the latter route rather than changing your data. You could use a display side coordinate system as described recently on this list to create the map projection that covers the radar area and will give you a local stereographic projection for each radar. If you use a CachingCoordinateSystem to wrap your Radar2DCS, you can cut down on some of the transformations if that is your goal. You could use the IDV classes for a map display and radar projections outright, or as a guide.
