[Cassegrain antenna with motor-driven subreflector]

Cassegrain antenna with motor-driven subreflector. In normal operation the received signal is reflected from the plate into the main refletor of the Cassegrain and from there, via the subreflector, the beam passed through the circular hole in the center of the main reflector, and then through the antenna cylindrical support structure, and finally into the top of the GOMUX.
