Attaching the feed horn and
transition to the radio
assembly
The feed horn and waveguide transition are shipped from the
factory pre-attached, as shown in
Figure 28.
Attach the square end of the waveguide transition (with the feed
horn attached) to the radio assembly—specifically, to the
transmit/receive isolation assembly, or TRIA:
1. Apply silicone grease to the O-ring groove in the waveguide
transition. See
Figure 29.
The silicone grease is provided in a small plastic capsule.
2. Place the O-ring (1-inch inside diameter) in the O-ring
groove in the square end of the waveguide transition.
