A mast radiator or mast antenna is a radio tower or mast in which the whole structure is an antenna. Mast antennas are the transmitting antennas typical for long or medium wave broadcasting. Structurally, the only difference is that some mast radiators require the mast base to be insulated from the ground.
Both stations used basic spark transmitters to wire antennas. After the trials and the construction of Poldhu, Bass Point became a ship to shore station until 1912. Bass Point is now a museum showing spark transmitters and receivers, they also have a rare Marconi wire detector. The Bass Point site houses the amateur radio station, GB4LD.

A typical mast radiator and antenna tuning hut of an AM radio station in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, U.S.. A mast radiator (or radiating tower) is a radio mast or tower in which the metal structure itself is energized and functions as an antenna.
Guyed radio masts are typically tall enough that they require several sets of guy lines, 2 to 4, attached at different heights on the mast, to prevent them from buckling. An exception to multiple guys was the Blaw-Knox tower , widely used during the 1930s, whose distinctive wide diamond ( rhomboidal ) shape gave it the shear strength that it ...
A tower array is an arrangement of multiple radio towers which are mast radiators in a phased array. [1] They were originally developed as ground-based tracking radars. [2] Tower arrays can consist of free-standing or guyed towers or a mix of them. Tower arrays are used to constitute a directional antenna of a mediumwave or longwave radio station.
