Unfortunately, there is no response from that site.  

Assuming from the URL that you have some NASA connection, you might be
able to locate some possibly relevant information on the phased arrays
used on the ATS-1 and -3 satellites.  I worked on the ATS-1 VHF repeater
and its 8-coaxial dipole cylindrical phased array at Hughes Aircraft
about 40 years ago but don't recall how much of the antenna details
ended up being documented in the reports which were submitted to NASA.
