2. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   Two-element turnstile antenna for reception of weather satellite data, 137 MHz. Has circular polarization. The dipole consists of two conductors, ...

3. 70-centimeter band - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/70-centimeter_band

   One practical concern when comparing the 70-centimeter band to the 2-meter band is that a quarter-wavelength antenna is much less unwieldy at 70 centimeters than it is at 2 meters. Portable antennas for 2 meters are generally continuously loaded coil spring or " rubber duck " types, while on 70 centimeters they can be a full quarter wavelength.

4. Parabolic antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_antenna

   For a typical 2 meter satellite dish operating on C band (4 GHz), this formula gives a beamwidth of about 2.6°. For the Arecibo antenna at 2.4 GHz, the beamwidth was 0.028°. Since parabolic antennas can produce very narrow beams, aiming them can be a problem.

5. Cassegrain antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_antenna

   A beam waveguide antenna is a type of complicated Cassegrain antenna with a long radio wave path to allow the feed electronics to be located at ground level. It is used in very large steerable radio telescopes and satellite ground antennas, where the feed electronics are too complicated and bulky, or requires too much maintenance and alterations, to locate on the dish; for example those using ...

6. Satellite dish - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_dish

   A satellite dish is a dish-shaped type of parabolic antenna designed to receive or transmit information by radio waves to or from a communication satellite. The term most commonly means a dish which receives direct-broadcast satellite television from a direct broadcast satellite in geostationary orbit .

7. Very-small-aperture terminal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very-small-aperture_terminal

   A 2.5 m parabolic dish antenna for bidirectional satellite Internet access. A very-small-aperture terminal (VSAT) [1] is a two-way satellite ground station with a dish antenna that is smaller than 3.8 meters. The majority of VSAT antennas range from 75 cm to 1.2 m. Bit rates, in most cases, range from 4 kbit/s to 16 Mbit/s.

8. Amateur radio repeater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio_repeater

   An amateur radio repeater system consisting of a 70 cm repeater and a 2-meter digipeater and iGate. Coaxial cavity RF filter at 2 meter repeater An amateur radio repeater is an electronic device that receives a weak or low-level amateur radio signal and retransmits it at a higher level or higher power, so that the signal can cover longer ...

9. Moxon antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moxon_antenna

   Moxon antenna for the 20-meter band.The antenna is the faint rectangle of wires held in tension by the bent X-shaped support frame. Moxon antenna for the 2-meter band. The Moxon antenna or Moxon rectangle is a simple and mechanically rugged two-element parasitic array, single-frequency antenna. [1]
