FEATURES:
The 436CP30 is a practical sized, yet high performance circular polarized antenna with a remarkably clean pat-
tern. The pattern is important in order to match the antenna's noise temperature with modern low noise preamps. This
antenna is ideal for satellite work but is also excellent for terrestrial uses like ATV, repeater operation, and long haul tropo
DX.
The CNC machined driven element module is O-ring sealed and weather tight for low maintenance and long-term
peak performance. Internal connected are encapsulated in a space-age silicone gel that seals out moisture and improves
power handling. The 3/16" 6061-T6 rod elements are centered to minimize interaction and maintain good ellipticity. Insu-
lators are UV stabilized and locked in place with stainless keepers. Rugged construction, uncompromising performance
for the boom length: that's the M

  • Page 3 436CP30 ASSEMBLY MANUAL To install the stainless steel SHAFT RETAINERS, use thumb and forefinger to hold the retainer over the end of the PUSH TUBE ( 3/8" x 3" tube, supplied in the kit), internal fingers on retainer dished into tube. HOLD THE ELEMENT FIRMLY TO PREVENT IT FROM SLIDING OFF CENTER and press the retainer onto the element end and continue until retainer butts on insulator button.
  • Page 4 NON-CONDUCTIVE mast or cross boom. INSTALLATION TIPS 13. The 436CP30 is a circular polarized antenna and creates a field in all planes or polarities. Performance DETERIORATES SIGNIFICANTLY if it is mounted on a metal (conductive) mast or cross boom. A mast or cross boom of any NON-CONDUCTIVE material must be used.
