Accessing Military Antennas For Civilians

By Elaine Guthrie


Armed forces everywhere use equipment of extra ordinary quality. Equipment failure means operation failure and the resulting loss of life. Communication is one of the most critical areas in an operation by armed forces. Communication in based on equipment using military antennas that help to enhance passing of information between troops and their commanders each based on different locations.

The need to be ahead of the enemy in every area motivates the military every day. Securing information is not very easy on today battlefield. Internet hackers, for example, have become adept at siphoning billions in dollars from banks and other institutions. Armed forces cannot let this happen. They have designed hack-proof communication gadgets that still guarantee uninterrupted communication between secure points. In the hands of an enemy information can be a lethal weapon.

These aerials have unique capabilities to decode, encode and encrypt. They are functional despite their theater of operation. This may be a submarine patrolling the deep bottom of our seas or that military aircraft traveling at Mach-two several thousand miles above. Other critical capabilities include designs that allow hiding within plain sight. It means deployment in enemy territory goes undetected.

A mission often takes troops to unforgiving terrain with harsh environments. These include temperatures beyond normal human endurance in deserts. It could be in temperatures well below zero on ice continents. No ordinary electronic gadget would remain functionally operational within such conditions. The equipment is, therefore, made in such that a specially trained soldier will be able to use them expertly despite the extremely harsh environment or weather condition.

The special antennas work with the conversion of radio waves into electrical currents and vice versa securely. In this regard, special transmitters and receivers constitute the components of this equipment. They have special circuits that designed to work optimally in information conveying within remote scenarios.

The masts that host the aerials have special designs that securely support and protect. Each part of the mast and aerial has been put up using standards strictly imposed by the military. In harsh terrain, stress and severe strain enacts on all equipment. The aerial and mast has, as such been made using cover material that secures the antenna against severe weather conditions and strong impact. Certain materials are also incorporated enabling self-illumination during night operations.

A number of reasons support civilian operations needs to purchase these pieces of communication equipment. These include private corporation security, rescue missions, mountain climbing and camping in remote areas. Surplus antennas are readily available for civilian purchase at various price levels. Their availability however points to the fact that new and better designs have come up which means the older models can be disposed through selling off to civilians.

A number of avenues are available, through which the aerials can be bought by private individuals. You can simply visit a military surplus store and negotiate your purchase. You could visit online stores for your pick. Recommendations and reviews regarding various models can be perused online. All these allow you select a model that meets your specific needs.
