Antenna
The 2.4-meter transportable SNG antenna from Andrew has been designed to be more
compact and lighter. This new design results in an antenna whose total assembly weight
has decreased by 33%.
This antenna design reduces overall windloading, is easier to install and is less costly to
ship. The stow height is at 24" for more overall clearance for the truck.
The vehicle mountable 2.4-meter prime focus offset fed antenna from Andrew incorpo-
rates performance and optional characteristics particularly suited for television broadcast
industry satellite news gathering applications.
The exclusively designed prime focus, beam-shaping feed configuration, together with
the precision hydroformed aluminum reflector assembly, produces extremely high gain,
superior efficiency and closely controlled pattern characteristics.
A motorized cable drive system provides a reliable, precise and smooth running system.
The SNG antenna options are the RCI 3000 and 3050 control systems.
Antenna travel is stow to +65° (optional 90°) in elevation and ±175° in azimuth.
Each SNG antenna is fully-integrated and pretested before leaving the factory to reduce
vehicle installation time and costs.
