Sounds like they used a tri-static Doppler radar technique. A conventional radar was used for the transmitter, and two separate dishes (GBT in WV, and Goldstone in CA) were used as receiving stations.

"Finding a derelict spacecraft at lunar distance that has not been tracked for years is tricky because the moon is riddled with mascons (regions with higher-than-average gravitational pull) that can dramatically affect a spacecraft's orbit over time, and even cause it to have crashed into the moon," JPL notes.

Wonder what lies beneath those mascons? Heavy iron/nickel deposits? Or gold?
