Summary[edit]

Description
English: The antenna feed is being installed at one of the GOES-R antenna sites at Wallops Command and Data Acquisition Station in Wallops, Virginia. Three new 16.4-meter antennas for GOES-R are under construction at WCDAS. They are designed to withstand sustained winds of 110 mph (Category 2 hurricane) and to survive (in a stowed position) gusts of up to 150 mph (Category 4 hurricane). These antennas will be compatible with existing GOES satellites and will operate continuously for the life of the GOES-R series.
