First post production Model 1 sample
First generation
Super Antenna Model 1 post production sample (photo above).Cabinet was done in white abs plastic.This was the first
smooth surface prototype production sample from our plastics vendor.Godars first 500 piece order was for black cabinets.The
plastics vendor made the mistake of sending us a white color sample instead of black for evaluation.*We discovered
the black finish models scratched easily.Just handling the cabinet would leave smudges and fingerprints. Cleaning
them off with a simple cloth would scratch the finish.The white sample of the same material did not show any surface defects
due to normal cleaning.
A major change in cabinet black surface was needed.
We considered
other colors and prints like wood grains etc.Textured high gloss black ABS plastic was the final color choice for
all future super and Godar antenna cabinets.Easy to clean and maintain.High Impact indestructible ABS material is considered
the best in the industry.All current Godar antenna housings are made in high impact ABS textured black plastic.
The
first generation Super antenna element set up consisted of a pair of 7 inline industrial steel elements connected internally
by a pair of three inch coax cable wires.Elements are mounted under the top of the cabinet.Godar's version of the log periodic
design antenna.
