​The VT-020LC™ is a 2.0m autotracking antenna that can be broken down into three parts for transport in the tough cases supplied with the antenna system.
Picture
​Using the latest Digital Rotary Scan (DRS™​) tracking head this 2.0m autotracking antenna offers exceptional dual polarization RF signal recovery over the L, S and C band ranges, with a single L, S and C band head assembly.

The built in dual channel Tracking/Data RF receiver provides both tracking data and combined data and clock outputs at the base of the antenna.
A build in Antenna Control Unit (ACU) works together with the integrated Tracking/Data RF receiver to provide exceptional autotracking even in the most difficult environments.
​

All the expected features of a professional level tracking antenna system (like slave tracking, acquire, vector tracking etc.) are provided by the ACU software included with the system, this software operates over an ethernet link between the VT-012LC™ antenna and a Windows PC running windows 7 thru 11. This PC requires no special extra hardware to do its job and can be a laptop or desktop system.
Of course, the VT-020LC™ still supports legacy external data receivers with its two amplified RF outputs.

The VT-020LC is one of a family of modular antennas which share the same riser, control box, electronics and software. Based on this a 1.2m reflector version the VT-012LC™ and a 3.0m reflector version the VT-030LC™ are also available.
