HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY 1 JANUARY 1991 TM 11-5985-391-12 GUIDELINES FOR SORAK OPERATIONS Never erect the antenna d

4、irectly under power lines. If you must erect an antenna below a power line, power line pole, tower, or building with overhead power line connections, never put the antenna closer than two times the an- tenna height from the base of the power line, pole, tower, or building. Before erecting any SORAK

5、antenna, inspect all the parts making up the antenna kit. Do not deploy antenna if components are missing or damaged. When erecting the antenna, allow only team personnel in the erection area. Make sure the areas for antenna anchor and guy rope stakes are firm. If the ground is marshy or sandy, use

6、rocks, trees, or bushes to help secure the antenna. When selecting locations for antenna anchor and guy rope stakes, avoid traveled areas and roads. If you cannot avoid these areas, clearly mark guy ropes and antenna wires with the warning flags or signs supplied by your unit. In an emergency, use s

7、trips of white cloth as warning streamers. If you suspect that power lines nave made accidental contact with your antenna, stop operating, rope off the antenna area, and notify your superiors. Keep a sharp eye on your mast guy ropes and stakes, and antenna anchor stakes. Check them daily and immedia

8、tely before and after bad weather. DO NOT ERECT ANY ANTENNA DURING AN ELECTRICAL STORM.

SORAK COMPONENTS. 22 FOOT MAST/GUY ASSEMBLY The antenna wires can be elevated by a 22 foot mast to maximize antenna performance. The as

46、sembly includes a telescoping mast supported by four 21 foot guy ropes, two 32 foot guy ropes, and four guy stakes. The mast is intended for use when existing structures (poles, buildings, trees, etc.) are not available. A spare 21 foot guy rope, 32 foot guy rope, and guy stake are included in the k

47、it. 1-7 TM 11-5985-391-12 1-10. SORAK COMPONENTS (CONT). 6 FOOT MAST/GUY ASSEMBLIES Two 6 foot mast/guy assemblies are provided to maintain a minimum wire height of 6 feet (1.8 meters) above ground to improve antenna efficiency. Each assembly includes a tele- scoping mast and three adjustable guy ro

48、pes with metal guy stakes. ANTENNA ASSEMBLY The antenna assembly includes two wire reels. Each wire reel is equipped with a 250 foot (76 meter) antenna wire. The wire reels allow you to quickly deploy and rewind the an- tenna wires. 1-8 TM 11-5985-391-12 1-10. SORAK COMPONENTS (CONT). The 40 foot ha

49、lyard is used to raise the antenna wire on the 22 foot mast. In some con- figurations, a shorting stud on the halyard is used to short two antenna wires together. The field radio transmits or receives signals through a coaxial cable connected to the SORAK balun transformer. The balun converts the unbalanced 50 ohm transmission line (coax) to a balanced 450 ohms for hookup with the antenna wires. The termination assembly absorbs nonradiated transmission power to reduce standing waves on the antenna wire. This gives the antenna a broadband response, eliminating the need to
