| EMCO 3102 Conical Log Spiral
The EMCO 3102 Conical Log Spiral is made with spiral windings of coaxial cable attached to the outside of a
fiberglass cone. Outside windings improve heat dissipation. This cone is
attached to a delrin rod equipped with an aluminum base. The antenna mount
base accepts standard 1/4 in x 20 threads from a tripod.
The Model 3102conical log spiral antenna was designed by
the Department of Defense for MIL-STD-461E measurements. The original
drawings provide the basis for th Model 3102.
Once used exclusively for MIL-STD and SAE testing,
conical log spiral antennas are effective for other types of measurements
too. For example they can be used for close-in "quick-looks" to
find the spectral characteristics of RF emissions. For immunity testing,
conical log spirals generate reasonable field strengths with modest power
input. By placing conical log spiral antennas in a vertical position with
respect to the ground plane, they can also be used as omni-directional,
horizontally polarized antennas for electromagnetic site surveys.
