Description: The AS-1075/SRN-6 antenna is a unit of the OA-1801/SRN-6 Antenna Group. The antenna group consists of the antenna, antenna pedestal, radome, and control amplifier. The AS-1075/SRN-6 antenna and AB-636/SRN-6 pedestal assembly include a fiberglass outer radome which encloses the antenna and pedestal. The antenna central array, spin motor, rotating assembly, and bearing reference servo assembly are mounted as a unit on a single base in the pedestal. This base is main tained in a horizontal plane by the roll servo system. Roll correction is limited to 250 by mechanical stops on the pedestal base.

Installation: The antenna assembly (antenna, pedestal, and radome) should be placed as high as possible and must be above objects in the immediate vicinity. Objects within 15 feet or less should not be higher than the lower edge of the pedestal for optimum TACAN performance. The installing activity must supply a base plate on which to mount the pedestal. The "N" and"S" marks on the pedestal must be lined up parallel to the ship's centerline to an accuracy of 0.1 degree, with the "N" mark facing forward. This system requires an input from the ship's stable element to provide roll information for antenna stabilization.

Considerations: The cable lengths between the antenna and almplifier group must not exceed 200 feet.
