This array has been engineered for maximum gain with
narrow vertical beam width to reduce the effects of man-
made noise in the immediate foreground. Where fixed
sources of noise such as power lines exist, it may be
possible to improve the signal to interference ratio with a
custom designed array.

* These standard arrays have been designed for maximum forward gain and best overall sidelobe performance. where interfering signals such as co-
channel, adjacent channel and ghosting are present, custom arrays can be designed to reduce the level of interference by as much as 40 db in
most cases.

A qualified structural engineer should be consulted prior to mounting an antenna on a tower or a support structure.
