Re: [time-nuts] New Symmetricom 58532A antennas - Launch3

The Symmetricom data sheet mentions the Option AUB antenna mast. What is 
that? I don't find details of it. How does you mount the 58532A antenna 
if the Option AUB mast is not available?

Re: [time-nuts] New Symmetricom 58532A antennas - Launch3

[Mark Spencer]

Hi I have one of the masts, it's just a piece of tubing.  According to the 
instructions that came with my antenna the mast has an outer diameter of 42mm,  
I would expect a metal supply store could supply a suitable piece of pipe or 
tubing ?

Hex screws in the base of the antenna clamp the antenna to what ever mast you 
use.

The data sheet has the mast dimension. It is  a standard 1 1/2 inch tube mount.

There's a drawing on the spec sheet. It's just a bit of 1 5/8 tube. Try a
local aerial fitter.

Re: [time-nuts] New Symmetricom 58532A antennas - Launch3

I shipped a bunch of ref-0 units to the UK. Saved a huge amount of shipping
by buying a lot. It might not be much more expensive to ship 10 than 1.

There are still a couple of patient folk on this list waiting for me to
ship them on (or maybe they've given up waiting for me to be less busy).

Launch3 contacted me, this morning, and noted they received over 10 separate 
inquiries for the 59532A antenna within 3 hours after I posted on "time-nuts" 
(daily digest readers have not yet received notice).
For newbies, this is a great price (eBay sells the used antennas for $100 each),
and they are brand new.

The Symmetricom 58532A GPS L1 Reference Antenna is an outdoor antenna.
The 58532a AUS option is a very simple kit of parts for mounting to a wall, or 
existing mast or tower leg. 
Your Answer is in the Specification Sheet I provided (and on Launch3 web site)
http://www.microsemi.com/document-portal/doc_view/133381-58532a
---
PAGE 2 : FIGURE 2 of the Specification Sheet tells you the SIZE of the Mast.
You see these Microsemi/Symmetricom mounting kits regularly sold on eBay 
(Launch3 may even have some), look at this eBay completed sale: 221735118342  ~ 
$20.00

IF you have ever installed a Diamond/Comet VHF/UHF base antenna -- 
this is the same mounting design type.
You can mount this to a wood structure, masonry wall, or existing pipe/mast 
(side of tower), as noted in Microsemi documents.

NOTE:  The antenna's "N" connector is on the bottom of the 58532A antenna.
These means that your coaxial feed must be routed inside your mounting pipe / 
mast -- 
IF you don't use the AUS kit of parts (or equivalent), then buy / acquire parts 
you need.

HARDWARE PARTS in typical AUS Mounting Kit
Turn to last page for typical AUS kit sold by Symmetricom/Microsemi

1 - Mast: 42 mm OD, 38mm ID; 355m Length; 10-60 CRS hot-dipped galvanized steel.
2 - Brackets
3 - Clamps
2 - U-Bolts
4 - Mounting Screws
4 - Hex Nuts

You can find these parts at hardware stores and TV antenna installation outlets.

How does the 58532A compare to some of the other antennas out there like the 
Nokia 470290. Right out of the box the Symmetricom has a >30db vs the >20db of 
the Nokia.

Re: [time-nuts] New Symmetricom 58532A antennas - Launch3

Thanks for passing this along. That's quite a good price, assuming the shipping 
is reasonable.

Is the 38dB of gain a little "hot" for some receivers?
