A quad-ridged, flared horn achieving nearly constant beamwidth and excellent return loss
over a 6-1 frequency bandwidth is presented. Radiation pattern measurements show
excellent beamwidth stability from 2 to 12 GHz. Measured return loss is>; 10 dB over the
entire band and>; 15 dB from 2.5 to 11 GHz. Using a custom physical optics code, system
performance of a radio telescope is computed and predicted performance is average 70%
aperture efficiency and 10 Kelvin of antenna noise temperature.
