The C ha nne l Ma ster Type 244 Dua l Op tics Rx-Tx Antenna is a rugged c om me rc ial grad e

produc t suitab le for the mo st d ema nding a pp lic a tions.The dua l optics design p rovide s the

superior cross-pol discrimination demanded for optimum performanc e on the Eute lsat sa tellite

system.

The reflec tor is thermoset-mo lded for streng th and surfac e a c c urac y. Mo lded into the rea r

of the reflec tor is a network of suppo rt ribs which no t only streng thens the a ntenna, but a lso

helps to ma inta in the c ritica l pa ra bolic sha pe necessary for transmit performa nce.

The Az/El mount is c onstructed from hea vy-ga uge stee l to p rovide a rigid supp ort to t he

reflec tor and feed su ort arm. He av -d ut loc k-down b olts sec ure the mount to a n 6.63 in.
