Skybrokers decommissioned two VertexRSI 9.0m Earth Station Antennas at the ESA facility in Redu, Belgium for Satellite Operator SES
Skybrokers decommissioned two VertexRSI 9.0m Earth Station Antennas at the ESA facility in Redu, Belgium for Satellite Operator SES.
Our first project in 2024! We removed two VertexRSI 9.0m Satellite Earth Station Antennas in January at the ESA Redu facility in Belgium for satellite operator SES. In challenging weather conditions our four-member project and installation team took down, disassembled and packed the antenna parts for transportation with dedicated trucks. Both antennas were cleaned and checked-out at our Antenna facility in Holland and found a new home in the Ukraine and Cyprus.
