|
6.2 - 30.0 MHz |
2 kW CW/4 kW PEP |
17 element rotatable log periodic. The
Model LP-1017-CA is a foreshortened array, about half the size of a full
sized antenna, yet it provides full coverage over 6.2 to 30 MHz. This
antenna is ideal for maritime, diplomatic, and long haul communications
where space and weight limitations are critical. |
| 1018 |
30.0 - 1100.00 MHz |
500 W @ 30 MHz/100 W @ 1000 MHz |
The Model LP-1018 log periodic dipole antenna has been
designed for transmission or reception in either oriented position -
providing a vertical or horizontal polarization. Applications for this
antenna include point to point, ground to air, surveillance, etc. The
broadband width of 30 through 1100 MHz, together with its high gain of 8.0
dB, and high front to back ratio of 15 dB, yield an antenna of infinite
possibilities and applications. |
| 1019 |
100.0 - 1100.00 MHz |
200 W |
The Model LP-1019 log periodic antenna has
been designed for maximum efficiency and high directive gain as needed for
point to point surveillance, ground to air and ground to space
communications. The antenna can be mounted on the face of any tower for
fixed azimuth in either vertical or horizontal polarization. This antenna
can also be mounted on a single or dual axis rotator for variable elevation
or azimuth. it is available in an optional, stainless steel, version as
Model LP-1019-SS. |

AS-3098V
5985-00-009-0129
|
4.0 - 30.0 MHz |
5 kW CW/10 kW PEP |
17 element rotatable log periodic. The Model LP-1112-MR is a
lightweight, transportable and rotatable log periodic antenna system
covering the range of 4 through 30 MHz. It is designed for temporary or
permanent installation with minimum deployment time. This unique antenna is
of extremely small size, considering its broad frequency coverage. The
antenna dimensions are only 96 x 62 feet (29.3 x 18.89 meters) with a tower
height of 60 feet (18.3 meters). The net weight of the system, uncrated, is
2000 lbs. Rotation is accomplished through the use of a mechanical stop and
halyard device, eliminating the necessity for electric power of any kind,
during the system erection and operation. Installation and erection can be
performed by a crew of 6 men in less than 4 hours. All installation tools
and fixtures are included in the antenna kit. |
| 1402
5985-00-097-8802
|
30.0 - 76.0 MHz |
75 W CW/150 W PEP |
7 element tactical, transportable VHF
antenna. The Model LP-1402 is a manpack, transportable antenna designed for
VHF, tactical communications in the field. Its versatility and practical
design is surpassed only by its rugged reliability. Supplied complete in a
backpack. When erected, this system may be used for vertical or horizontal
polarization at heights of 20 feet (6 meters). In addition to its excellent
electrical communications performance, human engineering factors have been
emphasized in the design to provide an easily erectable, foolproof antenna
system. Erection of it can be accomplished by 2 men in less than 10 minutes.
The top mast section is made of fiberglass to enhance antenna operation in
the vertical mode. Polarization can be easily switched without lowering the
antenna. |
1403
5985-01-441- 5478 |
30.0 - 88.0 MHz |
65 W CW/130 W PEP |
9 element tactical, transportable VHF antenna. With the
exception of the expanded operating banc, the Model LP-1403 is similar in
construction and application to that of the Model LP-1402 listed above. |
| 1910 |
2.0 - 30.0 MHz |
200 W CW/400 W PEP |
The Model 1910 is a rugged, lightweight,
manpack, tactical dipole antenna system that can be erected by 2 people in
less than 15 minutes. This system provides reliable short and medium range
sky wave communications in virtually all types of terrain. This broadband,
terminated, center-fed dipole antenna requires no tuning across the entire
bandwidth and so the need for antenna adjustment or an antenna tuner, is
eliminated. |
Loop antenna
(Description: PDF 237KB) |
Frequency range 2-32MHz |
Receive only |
Our basic antenna is an untuned, balanced loop which has
dimensions that are small compared with the wavelength. A preamplifier
circuit, fitted at the base of the antenna, exactly complements the loop
characteristics. This combination results in a nominally constant,
effective, height over the 2.0 to 32.0 MHz frequency range. The aperiodic
loop antenna configuration includes loop/preamplifier elements, in an "end
fire" array, with an interconnecting transmission line coupling each
element. The element spacing has been carefully chosen to provide optimum
directional characteristics for both long and short haul, point-to-point HF
communication using the ionosphere. Outputs are available at both ends so
the array can look both ways simultaneously, if required, or can be rapidly
switched through 180° with a coaxial relay. |

| 3002-FA |
Dual Tower System |
|
The Model T-3002-FA tower
system has been specifically designed to provide maximum support for large
log periodic antennas. The system includes 2 each 80 foot (24.38 meters),
hot-dipped, galvanized steel, knock down towers, the rotator Model R3503
with a DRC control unit, a 100 foot (30.5 meters) rotating mast, a base
mounted rotary joint, a 1-5/8" (35 mm) pressurized feed line and all
necessary guys and anchors. The rotator and all electrical and electronic
components are located at ground level providing easy maintenance access.
The heavy duty Model R3503 rotator is supported at the base of the tower
with a pivoting yoke system which places the vertical load support at the
tower base rather than on the tower itself. |
| 3501-GA
5820-00-437-9865
|
Rotator |
|
The Model R-3501-GA universal rotator system is
designed for medium duty antenna rotation applications where economy,
versatility and reliability are emphasized. It will mount on any tower of
sufficient face width with the minimum of adaptation required or it may be
mounted on the side or on top of towers, poles or other support structures. |
| 3502-GA |
Rotator |
|
The Model R-3501-GA is a
universal, heavy duty rotator system designed to rotate antennas requiring a
high starting, breaking, torque, but representing medium vertical loads. It
is readily adaptable to any tower of sufficient face width with a minimum of
structural adaptation. The main output shaft will concentrically accommodate
coaxial transmission lines of up to 1-5/8" (41 mm) in diameter. The system
is supplied complete with rotator pedestal, adapter angles, rotator control
unit and rotary joint. |
| 3503-FA |
Rotator |
|
The Model R-3503-FA rotator system is designed
for heavy duty applications where medium to high rotating/breaking torques
and high vertical loads are imposed. Provided with a 2 point trunnion
fixture, this rotator may be easily adapted to most applications. The output
shaft is a 12 bold flange mount casting. The rotator drive shaft will
concentrically accommodate coaxial transmission lines up to 6-1/8" (15.5 mm)
diameter with provisions for rotary joints at the base. These are available
as optional accessories. The system is supplied complete with rotator
pedestal and azimuth/indicator control unit. |
3512
(DRC-2)
5985-01-378-9728THIS ITEM IS OBSOLETE, BUT WE SUPPORT REPAIRS |
Rotator Control Unit |
|
The Model 3512 (also
identified as the DRC-2) rotator control unit is designed to provide both
manual and computer remote control for US Antenna Products rotators. In the
computer control mode the DRC-2 acts as an interface allowing a computer to
control the azimuth of the antenna. It can receive commands from the
computer and either of the RS-232 or RS-422 formats. The message between the
computer and DRC-2 consists of serial asynchronous data. In the manual
control mode the desired azimuth of the antenna is selected by turning the
manual control knob; after a 5 second delay, the rotator is activated and
the antenna rotates until it reaches the selected azimuth. The antenna's
direction is shown on the antenna's direction display. Interconnection
between the rotator control unit and the rotator power assembly may be
accomplished by using a 2 conductor cable or standard data grade telephone
leased lines. The antenna may also be rotated from the tower base using the
local controls provided in the rotator power assembly. |
3514
DRC-3 |
DIGITAL ROTATOR CONTROLLER
|
|
A completely new design of DRC that allows you to
control your 3501 or 3503 rotator from anywhere you have an internet
connection.
The new system incorporates a DC drive motor and
ramping feature that reduces wear on the rotator and allows for faster
rotation of the antenna.
The system is field upgradeable with existing 3501 and
3503 rotators so you are able to update the controls without changing the
entire rotator. |
