Data Controls: [purge] (?))

The Parabolic Antenna is a functional block. You can build it only if you have purchased the Contact Pack DLC.

Usage

It's a variant of the Compact Antenna, designed to resemble modern radar dishes. The small-grid one has one offset feed arm and the large-grid one is Cassegrain style. The usage is the same as the Antenna, so see there.

Construction

The antennas are 3x1x1 in both large- and small-grid block size. They have mount points on the backside. The large grid version has an additional mount point in the front center, e.g. for a light, or to put it on "backwards" as scifi decoration.
