Servo and RF System Upgrades 

Most antenna structure remain in good mechanical condition with proper maintenance. But the servo systems and controls are out dated. This is in growing demand with the cost of new antennas in today's market. Replacement of drives and RF upgrade is often the more cost effective. 

Decommission

  • removal of old foundations

  • restoration of site

  • dismantle of antenna and earth stations

  • recycling and/or crating systems and electronic components for storage

Relocation

apex will dismantle the existing antenna and components. Team will crate, ship and reinstall.

  • replacement parts

  • fabrication of obsoeite components

  • foundation design

  • site remediation

  • perfomance testing - pre and post
