Geophysical Survey Systems, Inc. 2.0 GHz Antenna Model 42600 2.0 GHz, Model 42600Antenna The Model 42600 antenna represents the state of the art in high-frequency, air-launched GPR antennas for near surface infrastructure assessment. It has excellent near surface resolution in a revolutionary small form factor. The Model 42600 is an air-launched antenna and is designed to be used suspended over the survey surface and not in contact with it. The Model 42600 can be used in distance (survey wheel) or time (continuous) modes. Smart Antenna The Model 42600 is a 2.0 GHz “smart” antenna. This antenna has a special chip in it that will work with the SIR-4000, SIR-30, and future control units (not the SIR-3000 or SIR-20). This chip will identify the antenna to the SIR-system control unit so that the controller will be able to automatically load up the correct default settings. The 42600 will not function with a SIR-3000, SIR-20 or any of GSSI’s previous controllers, as these previous controllers are not compatible with digital antennas. By digital antenna, we mean an antenna that digitizes the analog signal received before sending it to the controller. An analog antenna will send the signal to be digitized on a controller. System Setup - Standard Settings Preset Settings: Range/Depth is approximately 20 cm (8 inches) assuming a dielectric constant of 5. Collect Mode: Distance (recommended) or Time Scans per Second: 150 (recommended) Samples per Scan: 512 Depth Range: 20 cm (8 inches) Bits per Sample: 32 Specifications Center frequency: 2.0 GHz Pulse duration: 0.5 ns Depth of penetration: 0-0.75 ft depending on dielectric permittivity

This device many not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, Including interference that may cause undesired operation Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Parties operating this equipment must be eligible for licensing under the provisions of part 90 of 47 CFR. Operation of this device is restricted to law enforcement, fire and rescue officials, scientific research institutes, commercial mining companies, construction companies and private parties operating on behalf of these groups. Operation by any other party is a violation of 47 U.S.C. § 301 and could subject the operator to serious legal penalties. Coordination Requirements (a) UWB imaging systems require coordination through the FCC before the equipment may be used. The operator shall comply with any constraints on equipment usage resulting from this coordination. (b) The operator of an imaging system used for fixed operation shall supply a specific geographical location or address at which the equipment will be operated. This material shall be submitted to the Federal Communications Commission, 445 12th Street, SW Washington D.C. 20554. Attention UWB Coordination. (c) Users of authorized, coordinated UWB systems may transfer them to other qualified users and to different locations upon coordination of change of ownership or location to the FCC and coordination with existing authorized operations. (d) The NTIA/FCC coordination report shall include any needed constraints that apply to day-to-day operations. Such constraints could specify prohibited areas of operations or areas located near authorized radio stations for which additional coordination is required before operation of the UWB equipment. If additional local coordination is required, a local coordination contact will be provided. Notice: Use of this device as a wall imaging system is prohibited by FCC regulations. For U.S. Customers
