Description:
The AS-2806/SRC is an omnidirectional trussed monopole
antenna. The antenna consists of a box type aluminum mast
with four wire rope trusses from the top to outriggers at
the base of the antenna. The wire trusses are insulated from
the outriggers by fiberglass rods. The base insulator is an
integral part of the mast section. The AS-2806/SRC may be
used with any transmitting and/or receiving equipment
capable of operating within its frequency range and RF power
handling limitations. It may be operated in a vertical,
tilted, or horizontal position as in an aircraft deck edge
installation.
Installation: The antenna may be installed on
the ship's deck or structure by means of an adapter piece
fitted to the antenna below the spreaders. This piece is
fitted with angles drilled for 5/16 inch mounting bolts. The
truss wires must be stressed to specifications after initial
installation.
Considerations: This antenna may be installed
on a base tilting mount using the regular antenna base. |
