The antenna tracks automatically in azimuth and manually in elevation. Frequency bands are 248-272 MHz for receive and 292-312 MHz for transmit. Polarization is right-hand circular for both transmit and receive. Antenna gain characteristics are nominally 12 dB in transmit and 11 dB in receive. AN/WSC-5(V) SHORE STATION ANTENNA The AN/WSC-5(V) shore station antenna (fig. 2-32) consists of four OE-82A/WSC-1(V) backplane assemblies installed on a pedestal. This antenna is intended for use with the AN/WSC-5(V) transceiver at major shore stations. The antenna is oriented manually and can be locked in position to receive maximum signal strength upon capture of the satellite signal. Hemispherical coverage is 0 to 110 degrees above the horizon. Polarization is right-hand circular in both transmit and receive. The antenna’s operating frequency range is 240 to 318 MHz. With its mount, 2-17
