Abstract
This invention discloses an improved construction for portable disk antenna. This construction mainly comprises a disk antenna body, an outer member, an inner member, and a base. The outer member may rotate over 360 degrees about a first axis relative to the base. The inner member is rotably fitted into the outer member. The disk antenna body is connected to the inner member such that the disk antenna body, together with the inner member, can be rotated with respect to the outer member within an appropriate angular range about a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. This invention is characterized by further comprising an azimuth calibrating device having an azimuth calibration scale formed thereon for calibrating the azimuth deviation of the disk antenna body before use according to the indication of a compass; and an elevation calibrating device having an elevation scale formed thereon for calibrating the elevation deviation of the disk antenna body according to the indication of a level instrument. Consequently, the user can complete deviation calibration of the azimuth and the elevation of the disk antenna body by simple operation before use, and then directly adjust the…
