ABSTRACT:
A folding antenna for use in a satellite communication system comprises a box having a base (1) which forms the supporting structure for the antenna. A main reflector (16) is mounted on a platform (11) to which it is pivotted about a first axis (14). A sub-reflector (26) is pivotted to the main reflector about a second axis (21). By pivotting the sub-reflector and the main reflector downwardly they can be stowed into a position close to the base (1) and the lids (8) of the box closed to protect the system during transportation.
