Erroneous speed indications in radar can be caused by several factors, including Doppler shift errors due to relative motion, interference from other radar signals, and multipath propagation where signals bounce off surfaces before returning to the radar. Environmental conditions like rain, snow, or fog can also scatter radar waves, leading to inaccurate readings. Additionally, calibration issues or incorrect settings in the radar equipment may contribute to misleading speed data.
Interference in radar can cause false echoes or targets to be missed, impacting the accuracy of the radar system. It can also degrade the signal quality, making it harder to detect and track targets. Additionally, interference can result in decreased range and detection capability of the radar system.

To detect "the presence of distant metallic objects". (Taken from the Wikipedia page on Radar). You can read more about its beginning in the history section of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar#History
A radar mast is a high platform to mount a radar antenna such as the radar has an unobstructed view.
A radar engineer works with radar. They have design, develop, install, and test a radar.

Microbursts can be detected using weather radar. A sudden and intense downward air current can cause a radar signature called a radar wind shear pattern. Pilots may also detect a microburst while in flight due to sudden changes in airspeed, altitude, and wind direction.
The image generated by radar is typically called a radar image or radar map.
Radar range is the distance of the object from the radar. Radar bearing is the direction of the object in relation to the radar. As radar is primarily used for ranging, the range information may be more important than the bearing.
