Description: The AS-2812/SRC antenna is an omnidirectional vertical biconical dipole. All major components of the radiating and support structures are aluminum. The central feed section is protected and weatherproofed by a laminated fiberglass cover. The AS-2812/SRC may be used with any UHF transmitting and/or receiving equipment designed to operate within its frequency range and RF power handling limitations.

Installation: The antenna assembly is supplied with a mounting pad for vertical mounting. This pad has four holes for 5/16 inch bolts on a 3 inch square pattern. The antenna may be installed on a suitable mounting plate having matching bolt holes.

Considerations: The location for the AS-2812/SRC should be selected to provide maximum omnidirectional coverage within the physical constraints of the ship's structure. Propagation within the frequency range of the antenna is generally line-of-sight; therefore, antennas that are masked by surrounding structures may produce limited coverage in azimuth and/or elevation.
