About this file
This document contains a performance specification test sheet for a marine stabilized TV-DTS antenna system. It outlines inspection and testing procedures to verify proper operation of below deck equipment, above deck equipment, control and RF cabling, and system parameters. Performance tests include determining compass offset, recording system parameters from the ADE and IMU, powering up and verifying software and basic operation, testing axis operation of the pedestal and IMU, operational configuration including satellite selection and acquisition, and requirements for findings, observations and signatures upon completion.
The related federal contract opportunity is a pre-solicitation notice seeking sources for the regular overhaul and dry docking of the USNS ARCTIC in January 2022 to be conducted by the Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command.
