Short Wave Antenna System

Shortwave Directional and Non-Directional Antenna Systems in fixed and rotating performance

The Quadrant Antenna, which is Omni-directional, provides same time coverage of areas surrounding the transmitter site.

The directional Fixed Curtain Antenna is used when sectional coverage is desired, providing high antenna efficiency and the highest tolerance for unfavorable environmental conditions.

The newly developed Rigid Dipole Technology combines design principles as implemented in rotatable shortwave antennas with the advantages of curtain antennas.

Additionally, the Thomson Rotatable Curtain Antenna system is the most flexible available, covering a 360-degree angle. It has all the highlights of the rigid dipole antenna and in addition offers all frequency bands of the shortwave broadcasting range, electric control logic, smooth starting and breaking, high rotation speed of 1 degree per second, high positioning accuracy of less than 1 degree, and monitoring and remote control.
