installation instructions have been written for such
personnel. Antenna systems should be inspected once a
year by qualified personnel to verify proper installation,
maintenance and condition of equipment.

thoroughly before assembly
1. Mounting Ring on Reflector. Reflector
Remove the outer plastic wrap and gloves from the rear surface
mounting ring package. Use the gloves to handle
the mounting ring. Certain feed mounting surfaces
have corrosion inhibiting compound applied to
them for contact with specific areas on the
reflector. Do not remove the compound during
installation.

Carefully place the mounting ring against the rear

surface (convex side) of the reflector, as shown in
Figure 3, and place any additional plates required
(see Figure 2) against the front surface (concave M10 Bolt
side). Make sure that the overlap of the mounting
ring (see Figure 4) is positioned toward the top of
the antenna. Also make sure that any taper of the
ring or the plates matches the curvature of the
Nut

3. Attach Guy Lines
Attach the guy lines for the feed by passing each guy
line through the appropriate hole in the reflector as
shown in Figure 7. The top guy line has a tube instead
of a spring for some 10-foot antennas and all 12- and
15- foot antennas.
Pull each guy line toward the feed and hook it to the
anchor ring on the feed. Some anchor rings have a hole
to accept a guy line hook. Other anchor rings have a slot
that accepts the end of the guy line as shown on Figure
7. The anchor swivels to allow rotation of the feed for the
correct polarization.
Caution: Do not force the feed in any direction when
hooking the guy lines to it as this can damage the feed.
The feed must remain centered.
Guy line tension is set at the factory and no further
adjustment is necessary. When properly installed, all
springs should be under compression and about equal
in length.

Figure 7. Guy Line Assembly Details Showing
Alternate Attachments
Note: when a 15-foot antenna is mounted in the inverted
position (red stripe at the bottom position), the guy lines
must be installed in three holes plugged with bolts.
Reuse these bolts to plug the three unused holes in the
reflector.
3. Position Feed for Correct Polarization. Rotate the
feed to correct position for the polarization (horizontal or
vertical) required with the feed hub clamps loosened.
Refer to the examples given in Figures 8 and 9. If a
guy line interferes with this rotation, temporarily unhook
it.
A polarization arrow is located adjacent to each feed
input flange on the rear surface of the feed hub. This
arrow must be parallel to the polarization required.
For single polarized antennas, the arrow is positioned
up or down for vertical polarization, as shown in Figure 8.
Once correct feed position is obtained tighten all bolts
evenly, torque to 18.7 Nm 5%.

DO NOT ORIENT "RED UP" OR "RED DOWN"

LEFT OR RIGHT ONLY. REFER TO TEXT FOR DETAILS
Dual-polarized feed for HSX/UHX antennas have
asymmetrical patterns with lower side lobe levels on
one side. For these antennas, radiation pattern envelopes
are prepared for the full 360. The frequency coordinator
can use the better half of the radiation pattern on either the
right or the left side of the antenna to reduce potential
interference. The UHX/HSX feed hub is identified by red
tape fitted to the waveguide to identify the better side. The
red tape side can be placed either to the right or the left of
boresight. Therefore, it is necessary for the frequency
coordinator to specify feed "red left" or "red right". The
installer must be advised of the proper feed orientation on
all ultra high performance antennas and proper polarization
for plane-polarized antennas.

5. Pressurize Line and Feed. Connect a dehydrator to the

Dual-polarized, waveguide-fed antennas have both input
flanges in the same plane to permit easier attachment of
the waveguide, as shown in Figure 8. One input is rotated
90 within the feed to provide cross-polarization.
Dual-polarized feeds for the following standard antennas must
be positioned with the waveguide bends in the vertical plane,
as shown in Figure 10:
PX6 series (except PX6-122/-127 series)
PXL6 series (except PXL6-107 series)
gas port of the flange connector closest to the transmitter or
receiver. The dehydrator is used to purge the system of
moisture and provide a constant supply of dry air at a specific
guage pressure above atmospheric pressure. This supply is
maintained to prevent moist air from entering the system and
impairing performance. A source of nitrogen can be used
instead of dry air.
Remove the gas port plug on the connector at the antenna
end of the transmission line and purge the line continuously
until it is dry. Then replace the plug and pressurize the line.

The dehydrator used depends on the pressure requirements

Waveguide Top guy of the waveguide transmission line and the feed. A guage
line
bend pressure of 8 psi (55 kPa) is adequate for most systems.
However, no more than 10 psi (70 kPa) should be used.

Caution: Excessive pressure can damage the feed window.

3 label on the feed to be certain that you are using the correct
Rear view of feed hub
Figure 10. Examples of Dual-Polarised Feed
Positions with Waveguide Bends in Vertical Plane
(applies to specific antennas-see text ).
4. Connect Transmission Line.
Remove the protective covers from the feed input flange and
the connector flange of the transmission line. Connect the
flanges together with screws, lock washers and nuts (if
supplied), using the proper O-ring or O-rings.
Finger-tighten all of the screws. Then tighten first the screws
at or near the center of the long dimension of the flange and
then those on the short dimension. Tighten the screws in
pairs; that is, screws located 180 apart. If the gap between
the connector flanges is not uniform after tightening, loosen
the screws and retighten them.
Transmission line installation normally starts at the antenna
and proceeds to the transmitter or receiver. The lines must
be anchored with hangers along the supporting structure to
prevent any strain at flange connections. Refer to instruction
bulletins supplied with transmission line for torque values.
Some feeds may have lower maximum pressure ratings
because they are limited by the size of the feed pressure
window. Check to see if there is a pressure specification
pressure - only those feeds that have a maximum rating of
less than 10 psi are labeled with the maximum pressure
rating.
Example: For feeds connected to WR229 waveguide, use
only 4 psi (28 kPa) pressure; the maximum pressure rating
5 psi ( 35 kPa).
Feed Replacement Recommendations
A. Replacement of Improved Hub Design Feed
General Note. Some feeds have a feed horn, illuminator
ring and waveguide bends that cannot be passed through
the 8-inch (203 mm) diameter opening in the mounting ring.
When this is the case, the feed must be removed from the
front side of the antenna. The following feeds cannot be
removed from the rear side of the antenna.
Single polarized feeds with WR229 waveguide
Dual-polarized feeds with WR112 and larger waveguide
When replacing a feed, you should also consider replacing
the new parts included in the kit: mounting ring, vertex
ring, vertex ring shim and guy wires. If these parts are to be
replaced, they must be installed from the front side of the
antenna as given in Steps 1, 2 and 3 for new installations.
To remove the feed from the rear of the antenna for either
replacement or inspection of the feed horn and window,
proceed as follows.
