Note: Standard C-band Circular polarization in Tx-Band provides an axial ratio of 1.3 (XPD equivalence of 17.7 dB). Optional F-1 station feed available with axial ratio of 1.09 (XPD equivalence > 27.3 dB) in Tx band. Call the factory when specifying this option. X Band filters are available upon request.
