 Section I
Type 202680-( ) Ground Mount Assembly
1.0 Introduction
I.IType 202680-( ) Ground Mount Assembly is a galva-
nized steel elevation-over-azimuth pedestal mount opti-
mized for geostationary satellite applicatons in the Ku fre-
quency band. The elevationlazimuth mount design simpli-
fies installation and minimizes foundation requirements
while enabling horizon-to-horizon coverage from any
worldwide location.
1.2 The ground mount assembly enables 180" positioning
for selected azimuth viewing. Azimuth range coverage is
plus or minus 90" divided into three 120" continuous
ranges with 30" overlap. Elevation adjustment is continu-
ous from 0" to 90".
Read the Instructions
Thoroughly Before Assembly
2.0 Ground Mount Assembly
2.1 The following major assemblies are required to install
the 3.7-meter ground mount. Check all assemblies before
beginning installation. Refer to parts list for detailed
description.
2.3 Carefully raise entire ground mount assembly and
attach to corresponding foundation anchor bolts using 314
in. flat washers and nuts. Note: Ground mount positioning
on foundation is dependent upon predetermined azimuth
viewing requirements.
2.4 Position and mount 203112 azimuth strut weldment to
ground mount assembly as shown using 314 by 1-112 in.
bolts, lock washers and nuts. Note: Mounting position of
azimuth strut weldment is dependent upon predetermined
azimuth range requirements as shown in Figure 1-1, top
view.
2.5 Loosely install supplied 112 by 1-112 in. setscrews in
azimuth and elevation strut supports; 314 by 2 in. A-325
bolts, flat washers and nuts in ground mount angle assem-
blies; and 314 by 3-314 in. bolt, lock washer and nut in
azimuth strut weldment for future use. Note: Type 202951
azimuthlelevation strut kit is required and is supplied as
part of 203030-( ) antenna kit.

Earth Station
Antenna Pointing

1.0 Introduction 2.2 Some transponder signal may be observed above the
noise signal as shown in Figure 2.
1.1 This document provides adjustment information re-
quired during installation of the Earth Station Antenna
System. In addition, these same procedures are applica-
ble as a follow-on to any corrective maintenance where
readjustment and/or component replacement necessitates
checking and/or reestablishing system settings and adjust-
ments as well as antenna pointing information. Refer to
applicable motor drive installation drawings for further
information.

2.0 Acquiring A Satellite

2.1 While viewing the spectrum analyzer screen, a pure

noise signal as shown in Figure 1 will probably be
observed.

Figure 2. Minimum Transponder Signal

on Spectrum Analyzer
2.3 Manually move the antenna in azimuth (scanning
back-and-forth) to achieve the maximum (greatest ampli-
tude) transponder signals. Scan in one direction until the
amplitude continues to diminish and then scan in the
opposite direction until the same condition occurs. Return
to the position yielding the greatest amplitude. The maxi-
mum azimuth excursion from the original setting should
not exceed +I .5degrees or the antenna may begin to
access a different satellite. With the antenna positioned in
azimuth such that the transponder signals are maximized,
follow the same procedure manually moving the antenna
in elevation (scanning up and down) to further maximize
-
the transponder signals. Repeat this procedure alternating
Figure 1. Pure Noise Signal on Spectrum Analyzer between the azimuth and elevation excursions of the
antenna to peak the transponder signal amplitude. A
transponder signal amplitude of 30 dB or more from peak
to average noise signal indicates the antenna is receiving
the signal on the main beam. A transponder signal ampli-
tude less than 30 dB indicates the antenna is receiving the
signal on a side lobe of the main beam.

2.4 With the antenna peaked on a side lobe in azimuth
andlor elevation (refer to Figure 3, position A), move the
antenna in azimuth while observing the spectrum analyzer
screen.
2.5 If the signal amplitude diminishes and does not
increase (position B) to the level noted when the antenna
was peaked on the side lobe, the antenna is moving away
from the main beam; reverse the direction of antenna
movement. From the original side lobe position (position
A), the signal amplitude should now diminish to a null
point at position C (minimum amplitude showing only sig-
nal noise) and then symmetrically increase again to the
same level at position D as noted at position A. At the null
point (position C), the antenna is aligned with the alternate
(elevation) axis. If the antenna was peaked on a side lobe
in azimuth, it was appropriately aligned with the elevation
axis; proceed with paragraph 2.6. If the antenna was
peaked on a side lobe in elevation, it was appropriately
aligned with the azimuth axis; proceed with paragraph 2.6
moving the antenna in azimuth rather than elevation.
2.7 If the antenna is aligned in azimuth and elevation (sig-
nal maximized) and 24 transponder signals (12 horizontal
and 12 vertical) are noted, the polarization adjustment is
set incorrectly and must be modified. If 12 transponder
signals are noted, they may or may not be the properly
polarized signals. Therefore, 24 transponder signals must
be visually noted in order to determine the proper polariza-
tion setting.
2.8 Rotate the feed assembly clockwise until 24 transpon-
der signals are noted and of approximately equal amplitude
as shown in Figure 4. Note: It is more accurate and visual-
ly easier to minimize the alternate set of transponder sig-
nals rather than maximizing the transponder set of interest.

2.6 Move the antenna in elevation while observing the

spectrum analyzer screen. If the signal amplitude increas-
es, decreases and then increases again but to a lesser
value, the antenna is moving in the wrong direction;
reverse the direction of antenna movement. From the orig-
inal null point (position C), the signal level should increase
and decrease alternately but with increasing amplitude
until the transponder signal increases to a level of at least
30 dB at which time the antenna is receiving the transpon-
der signals on the main beam. Continue to manually peak
the signal to a maximum level using the azimuth and ele-
vation adjustments. Figure 4. Polarization at 45" from Optimum Setting
2.9 With all 24 transponder signals of approximately equal
amplitude appearing on the spectrum analyzer screen as
shown in Figure 4, determine the specific antenna system
and satellite parameters noted in paragraph 2.8. Rotate
the feed assembly as required until the appropriate (odd
or even) transponder signals are maximized. Figure 5
illustrates partial minimizing of the alternate transponder
signals.
2.10 Figure 6 illustrates full minimizing of the alternate sig-
nals; the desired result.
