Description

We have a C-Band uplink system for sale:

ASC 6.5 M C-Band Uplink Antenna
Model: ES65-2
It has both Horizontal and Vertical TX waveguides installed (only one is hooked up to the redundant SSPA switch). The other is capped.
There are also H and V LNBs for Rx return use.
Purchased in 2010

RSI Controller (Az, El, Pol)
RSI Remote Controller

Dual 70 MHz to L-Band Up Converters
Paradise 30 Watt redundant SSPAs (BUC w/ L-Band input)
HPAC-2030-ACPB Redundant C-Band System
SSPA SN: 20344*, 20344*
Changeover Switch
Model: HPAC2030ACP F001
SN: 13*
Paradise Transmitter Remote Controller
RCP2-1100 (1:1 Redundant System Controller)
SN: 20337*

Including the SSPAs, controls, motors, and antenna, we probably have about $130,000 in it plus installation, pad, etc.

Who you have disassemble it is entirely up to you and/or the customer. I know a couple satellite rf engineers that can dismantle it and they have done a very good in the past and could heartily recommend them.

The lead time from take-down to packing will be approximately 1-2 weeks. The purchaser will provide their own 40 foot sea container and WE will pack it securely in the container in a manner for international or domestic shipping.

It is possible that the main reflector wouldn’t have to be taken 100% apart. It might be possible to only take half of the reflector apart from the hub and transport it that way (flat bed or box truck).

Let me know if you have any other questions. It just so happens that we are running it through 100% system tests this week as it’s been out of 24/7 use for several years. It was used about six years for a 24/7 cable network that was later sold. So we no longer have a need for it.
