Description
A solid performer Ideal for Commercial C and Ku-Band Applications

Need a more cost effective solution for a 3.8 meter C-Band or Ku-Band Transmit/Receive antenna?  Many customers require the extra link margin that a larger antenna like a 3.0 meter can provide, for the hub station in their VSAT networks, a video uplink, or an SCPC central station. Many also require affordable prices not often found when considering the other antennas on the market.  The Patriot 3.8 meter offset is the affordable, flexible choice.  Every Az/El fixed Kingpost antenna is fully upgradeable in the field to a Dual-Axis Motorized antenna with 180° Horizon to Horizon mount.

Patriot's newest offset antenna is not just affordable, its a solid performer.  The stretch formed 3.8 meter antenna with kerf panels provides superior surface accuracy.  Easy installation without the need for a crane or a lifting device.
