Well, anything at the extremes of the airframe will cause more problems
than things at the middle, not to mention the added weight from all the
extended wiring, but the big thing is still flying around in a big radar
range.

Living long is the clue, I suppose. The "Nimwacs" – the Nimrod-based early
warning platform that the RAF was going to have – had scanning aerials fore
and aft, never pointing at the cabin. But that caused fatigue on the
airframe. It was probably one (of many) reason it was cancelled.
