Abstract
An actuator assembly for adjusting attributes of an antenna array. The actuator assembly provides a multi-RET actuator including a plurality of linear actuators, each including an actuator spur gear, a carriage assembly with an actuator drive motor mounted on a car and a nut attached to the car. A positioning motor is coupled to a lead screw and the nut is threaded onto the lead screw. The car travels on a guide so that the positioning motor and lead screw may be operated to bring the carriage assembly into engagement with a desired one of the linear actuators.
