2. Moxon antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moxon_antenna

   Moxon antenna for the 20-meter band.The antenna is the faint rectangle of wires held in tension by the bent X-shaped support frame. Moxon antenna for the 2-meter band. The Moxon antenna or Moxon rectangle is a simple and mechanically rugged two-element parasitic array, single-frequency antenna. [1]

3. Reflective array antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_array_antenna

   This reflective array television antenna consists of eight "bowtie" dipole driven elements mounted in front of a wire screen reflector. The X-shaped dipoles give it a wide bandwidth to cover both the VHF (174–216 MHz) and UHF (470–700 MHz) bands. It has a gain of 5 dB VHF and 12 dB UHF and an 18 dB front-to-back ratio.

4. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

   The rubber ducky antenna (or rubber duck aerial) is an electrically short monopole antenna, invented by Richard B. Johnson, that functions somewhat like a base-loaded whip antenna. It consists of a springy wire in the shape of a narrow helix , sealed in a rubber or plastic jacket to protect the antenna. [ 1 ]

5. Television antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

   The television broadcast bands are too wide in frequency to be covered by a single antenna, so the two options are separate antennas used for the VHF and UHF bands or a combination (combo) VHF/UHF antenna. [6] A VHF/UHF antenna combines two antennas feeding the same feedline mounted on the same support boom.

6. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   The category of simple antennas consists of dipoles, monopoles, and loop antennas. Nearly all can be made with a single segment of wire (ignoring the break made in the wire for the feedline connection). [citation needed] Dipoles and monopoles called linear antennas (or straight wire antennas) since their radiating parts lie along a single ...

7. UHF television broadcasting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHF_television_broadcasting

   This mast has two UHF antennas for receiving signals from different directions. The lower antenna is a bowtie array. The upper antenna is a Yagi design. UHF television broadcasting is the use of ultra high frequency (UHF) radio for over-the-air transmission of television signals. UHF frequencies are used for both analog and digital television ...

8. Very high frequency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very_high_frequency

   For directional antennas, the Yagi antenna is the most widely used as a high gain or "beam" antenna. For television reception, the Yagi is used, as well as the log-periodic antenna due to its wider bandwidth. Helical and turnstile antennas are used for satellite communication since they employ circular polarization.

9. Turnstile antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnstile_antenna

   A turnstile antenna, or crossed-dipole antenna, [1] is a radio antenna consisting of a set of two identical dipole antennas mounted at right angles to each other and fed in phase quadrature; the two currents applied to the dipoles are 90° out of phase. [2] [3] The name reflects the notion the antenna looks like a turnstile when mounted ...
