REQUIREMENT The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) Office of Satellite Product Operations (OSPO) has a requirement for a filtration system for the 21m antenna located at the Fairbanks Command and Data Acquisition Station (FCDAS) in Fairbanks, AK.
