Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A motorized antenna positioning mechanism in a portable microwave communication unit for use as a ground station in a satellite communication system. The antenna positioner has compact and low profile azimuth wire drive mechanics, azimuth and polarization angle sensors that are not affected by slippage and backlash, and an elevation drive mechanism which neutralizes the pressure on the motor axis due to the weight of the parabolic antenna.
