( Posted here by forum admin for seller, from email )
For sale: 90cm tracking maritime mobile satellite TV receive antenna in radome.
All technical docs, software code in C and a bunch of spares in a pelicase. Seller worked for a UK company a few years back installing, servicing etc.
The Ku band antenna is in 1 metre radome, tracking satellite by spinning sub-reflector sampling done in quadrants so makes corrective movements up, down, left and right by introducing a small signal attenuation and monitoring AGC to track/peak the signal. I would fully explain operation and go through the schematics with any buyer.
Full technical specification: https://www.satsig.net/forum-archive/901i-Marine-stabilised-satellite-tv-antenna.pdf
It's presently in the mountains in Southern Spain and want to get rid of it.
Would make a great home spun satellite project or just keep using for satellite TV ?
Maybe of value for university / enthusiast / radio amateur / radio astronomy, for experimenting or research.
Deliverable, within reason (europe) if any buyer wants to rent a van for me...:)
