Abstract
An apparatus for rapidly starting and stopping a conical scan antenna beam in which a feed rotating about a centerline provides a non-conical scan antenna beam during a search mode. When a target is detected a solenoid moves an actuator pin which displaces one end of the feed from the centerline providing a conical scan antenna beam for target tracking.
