No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves.

Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and

fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone

radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ...

and you can't see any of them !

Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
