Hi all, I was doing some snooping around and came across a link on Lens Horn
antennas.  The following link is to a pdf file - lays it all out and the 24
ghz #2088KZEP has a 250 mm diameter (about 10") and 34.5 dbi gain with 3.5
degree H plane.

This sure looks like a neat antenna, does anyone know about any pitfalls of
these types of antennas?  According to the documentation, the radome and
lens are very good at keeping out the elements.  Very low wind load as well.

So, just thought I would pass it along and if anyone has any feedback,
great!
