Abstract
With the addition of the new “kickers” on the 64-m-diameter antenna, fore knowledge of any change in the RF boresight direction errors due to gravity loadings would be of operational value. Using ray tracing techniques, the before and after boresight errors are computed and the configurations documented by line sketches of the RF surfaces with a table of linear and angular deflections. This method of analysis indicates that the RF boresight direction with respect to the intermediate reference surface will have lower deviations after the modifications.
