ASC Signal Corporation has secured a major contract with ShenTai International Company, one of Asia’s leading providers of HF radio systems, for the design, construction and delivery of a major HF antenna infrastructure project. Under the agreement, ASC will provide, among other components, 60 of the company’s Model 3794 for coastal communications systems used by the government in China.
Known over
four decades
for its
design
innovations,
ASC
leveraged
the
durability
and
performance
of its line
of HF
products to
ensure
reliable
operation in
rugged
coastal
conditions.
ASC’s Model
3794, one of
26 HF
antennas in
the ASC
product
line,
provides
high-power
area
coverage
transmission,
particularly
suited to
ship-to-shore,
ground-to-air
and HF
broadcast
applications.
The broad
frequency
range
permits use
of the
optimum
frequency
for any
distance,
while the
radiation
patterns are
suitable for
sky-wave
propagation
at medium
and low
ranges,
supplemented
by
ground-wave
propagation
at short
ranges.
This was
considered
essential to
the needs of
the
end-user.
“Providing
mission-critical
HF,
satellite
and radar
antenna
systems for
government
and
commercial
customers
around the
world is one
of our core
strengths,”
said Keith
Buckley,
President
and CEO of
ASC Signal.
“I am proud
of our
engineering
and sales
team because
they have
made our HF
antenna
products the
product of
choice for
vital
defense,
aircraft and
emergency
systems. We
are also
proud to
have been
selected by
yet another
government
that
recognized
ASC’s solid,
long-lasting
product
performance.”
“During Shen
Tai’s 10
years’ of
experience
with HF
antenna
system
projects for
the Chinese
military, we
have found
that ASC
Signal’s
antennas are
among the
best
performing
and
highest-quality
products in
the world,”
said Helen
Du, Chief
Technical
Director of
ShenTai
International
Company.
“The HF
antenna
model 3794
was
introduced
to China in
2007 and has
proven
itself as
one of the
most
reliable
antennas in
medium-range
communication
for our
customers.”
