Do you know of any detailed source on all that, ideally something like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0813338697 ?

The only thing I can add to this debate with my current knowledge is that the British foiled the start of a campaign against the Chain Home radars after the Luftwaffe's first Maximum Effort against one station. Devastation was wreaked, but one or more boffins who showed up to see what could be done observed that there was one functioning transmitter, and jury rigged an antenna for it.

When the Luftwaffe did ECM reconnaissance they couldn't distinguish between it and a functioning station, and concluded that approach wasn't going to work.

Can't remember my source for it, a quick check of the index indicates it wasn't R.V. Jones' superb Most Secret War.
