The High-Gain Antenna is a new player project in Arc Raiders, added in the Flashpoint update. Similar to the Trophy Display project, you’ll need to gather a bunch of different items to donate to the High-Gain Antenna project (including some brand-new materials) to construct your own Arc-detecting machine.
With Shredders escaping Stella Montis, Assessors revealing new operations, and the arrival of Vaporizers (their terrifying name matches their lethality), the Arc are seemingly evolving and expanding their efforts. There’s no better time to get a clearer view of topside, then.
All Arc Raiders High-Gain Antenna steps
The High-Gain Antenna project has three stages for you to work through by donating various resources and items. It’s theoretically shorter than other projects, like the Weather Monitor, but the materials you’re required to find will take a lot of time to gather. Keep in mind that you can start gathering materials for later stages and store them in your stash.

Given the rarity and volume of Arc materials you need to collect, I recommend taking advantage of the Close Scrutiny map condition. This increases Arc material loot and spawns plenty of high-tier machines, including Surveyors, Vaporizers, and so on.
Here are all three stages, their required materials, and the rewards:

There’s no grand prize for completing the entire High-Gain Antenna project like there has been in the past, but the rewards you earn for completing each stage are pretty sweet at least. It’s hard to argue with 400 Raider Tokens and a variety of rare attachments.
Is it necessarily worth going out of your way to complete this project if you weren’t going to anyway? No. But if you’re a completionist, then it’s an extra bonus incentive.
