An antenna system comprises a reflector subsystem, a rotatable support structure and a support member. The reflector subsystem receives an input beam and reflects the input beam to produce an output beam steered in elevation by an elevation reflector and in azimuth by an azimuth reflector, towards a target. The rotatable support structure is operably coupled to the azimuth reflector and to the elevation reflector and is configured to rotate them simultaneously. The support member comprises a lengthwise portion coupled to the rotatable support structure and an offset portion coupled to the elevation reflector, the offset portion configured to offset the elevation reflector from the lengthwise portion. The offset portion is configured to enable clearance of the elevation reflector during beam steering of the output beam to extreme ends of a range of motion of the elevation reflector.
