[Ground-station] Temperature testing resources for antennas?

[KENT BRITAIN]

 The -200C would be my problem.
Heck, most of the atmosphere becomes a liquid near that temp.

 Anyone have access to any type of temperature chamber, anywhere to test some antennas?

For Gateway, temp range is expected to be -200 to +160 C. 

I'd like to get any results, even if it's "only" industrial range, for the antennas that we currently have in hand for 5 GHz/10 GHz. 

This would start to produce results that could be compared to later results, when the revisions of the designs for Gateway start getting turned into molecules. Showing improvement over temperature is super important and starting now greatly reduces risk.
