The "anomalies" pointed out in that substack are interference being picked up by that radar's receiver. Sorry to tell you but you can't see what is being transmitted only what is being received. If an emitter in the coverage area has a close enough frequency to the radar in question it will be picked up as an interference strobe. If you would like to see the raw map of NEXRAD radar coverage it is here: https://atlas.niu.edu/analysis/radar/CONUS/usradsmall_b.loop.gif

You will find there are interference strobes that happen from time to time all over the place even when no significant weather is present. Be careful who you believe. You can learn about the basics of radar theory here: https://training.weather.gov/nwstc/NEXRAD/RADAR/Section1-2.html
