Accessing Military Antennas By The Non-Military

By Elaine Guthrie


Armed forces everywhere use equipment of extra ordinary quality. Equipment failure means operation failure and the resulting loss of life. Communication is one of the most critical areas in an operation by armed forces. Communication in based on equipment using military antennas that help to enhance passing of information between troops and their commanders each based on different locations.

Our military motivation rests on the need to remain ahead of our enemies always. It is not easy to secure information channels on the battlefield. Hackers, as an example, are very adept at stealing dollars in billions from financial and other institutions. Our armed forces require stopping this from happening to their systems. They have commissioned designing of hack-proof gadgets, which secures uninterrupted communications between points. Our enemies would have a powerful weapon if they obtained this information.

These aerials have unique capabilities to decode, encode and encrypt. They are functional despite their theater of operation. This may be a submarine patrolling the deep bottom of our seas or that military aircraft traveling at Mach-two several thousand miles above. Other critical capabilities include designs that allow hiding within plain sight. It means deployment in enemy territory goes undetected.

Missions often take our troops to harsh environments and terrain. These include deserts where heat is too high for human endurance. Other scenes are in temperatures below zero within icy landmasses. Ordinary electronic equipment would not remain functional in such conditions. The equipment in military aerials is constructed in such a way that an expert soldier would use them despite the extremes of weather and environment.

These antennas work by converting electrical currents into radio waves securely and vice versa. This means that special receivers and transmitters are part of the equipment. They have special circuits designed to function optimally in remote sensing for information conveying.

The masts hosting the antennas are specially designed so that they offer secure support as well as protect them. Every part of the antenna and its mast features designs and construction using strict military standards. Under harsh terrain severe strain and stress on the equipment is inevitable. The equipment is, therefore, made using proactive cover material capable of securing the antenna in any weather condition and against strong impact. Extra features enable self-illumination for night visibility.

Civilians may purchase these kinds of transmission equipment for any number of reasons. They include security for private corporations, rescue missions, camping within remote areas and mountain climbing. Surplus military aerials are easily available to civilians at varying cost levels. Of note, however is that their availability for civilian purchase means newer and better versions have been made meaning older models might be disposed with sell off to non-military institutions.

The options available that enable non-military purchase abound. A person may simply walk into a military surplus store and make a purchase. Numerous online outlets are also available. On the internet, reviews and recommendations on different models are numerous. These enable a buyer select the specific features that meet their particular needs.
