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. 

 

4.4 

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.
