This is designed for satellite operation and has
circular polarization.(RHCP) Both sets of elements optimized in
satellite band. The elements are spaced 1/4 wavelength on the
boom and then fed with two phasing cables each cut to 3/4 electrical
wavelength in the center of the satellite band and produces circular
polarization. Unit is supplied with phasing lines and T connector.
Antenna is constructed of the finest materials, 6061 corrosion
resistant aluminum. Elements are 3/16" dia. except for the
driven element which is 1/4" dia. (solid rods). Uses superior
T match system and coaxial balun (RG 142U MIL SPEC.Teflon) for
50 ohm balanced load. Unit is CAD designed for the mechanical
structure and computer optimized for electrical characteristics.
These antennas are constructed with the utmost precesion. assuring
you of top performance. All hardware is stainless steel except
for U bolts which are Zinc Plated. Antenna is designed to last
indefinately while providing superior performance.
