Ok but not really what I asked. There are class D airports where the controller will say “Radar service terminated, contact ______tower on ___._ In those cases, the tower is equipped with different equipment not capable of providing radar surveillance. There aren’t a lot of them throughout the country, but it happens. This lack of equipment is probably one reason they can’t coordinate flight following for you. It may also be as simple as not having a letter of agreement between the two facilities.
