Point Mugu GKR-11 telemetry site


Point Mugu, California (CA), US
The Point Mugu telemetry system uses four GKR-11 and two GKR-13 antennas for primary operational support. The GKR-11 antennas are located near the Telemetry Collection Facility. The GKR-13 antennas are located on Laguna Peak and remote-controlled from the TCF at Point Mugu. The antennas operate in multiple modes, and a computer bus system, (Sensor Positioning and Readback System (SPARS)), generates look angles for automatic acquisition and re-acquisition using sensor inputs from other telemetry and radar systems.
