Mount And Reflector Support Structure

The mount and reflector support structure supplied with this antenna is of steel
construction and has a hot-dipped galvanized finish.

If inspection shows any signs of structural failure, the mount members that are
damaged should be repaired or replaced.

Corrosion: Any corrosion on steel members may be repaired with a cold, zinc-rich
galvanizing paint.

5.4

Feed And Feed Support

The feed support system should be inspected to insure that all hardware is secure.
The feed/radio mounting bolts should be tight.

The feed horn window should be inspected to insure that it is intact so that no
moisture can collect inside the feed horn. Replace if damaged.
