The metallic reflecting grid in Dourbes
- Details
The 8m x 8m metallic grid has been installed in Dourbes. Very nice job from our engineering staff. Now we try to analyze the influence of this change of the radiation pattern on the number of plane echoes, their intensity and on the intensity of the carrier.

The metallic reflector grid for the beacon in Dourbes is under construction
- Details
Our engineering team in the workshop has now started building a 8m x 8m metallic grid which will strongly improve the radiation pattern of the beacon antenna. Currently too much power is emitted at small elevation angle resulting in a very intense carrier signal and a lot of strong plane echoes. With this grid, the situation will improve a lot (see tests in the news from 07/06/2011). Below are two pics of one 2m x 2m block of the future metallic grid. The picture on the right is a picture from above.
