Feed Cone • Why? – More Frequencies – RFI Containment – Reduced clutter at antenna vertex • How? – Similar to existing K/Q segments – Monolithic Jim Ruff Antennas & Feeds PDR 2/12/02 2
Feed Circle Jim Ruff Antennas & Feeds PDR 2/12/02 3
EVLA Feed Cone The L-Band horn is not contained in the feed cone. Jim Ruff Antennas & Feeds PDR 2/12/02 4

Feed Cone • Unresolved Questions – Aluminum or Polycarbonate core? • Aluminum cores are stiffer • Polycarbonate cores are better thermally – Service Access • Receiver heights vary greatly • Space will be at a premium Jim Ruff Antennas & Feeds PDR 2/12/02 6
Feed Mounting • Features: – Based on VLA X-Band – Continuous metal-to-metal for RFI containment – Simple horn installation and alignment – Convenient receiver swapping • Which Bands? – S? C X Ku K? Ka? Q? Jim Ruff Antennas & Feeds PDR 2/12/02 7
