2. G5RV antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G5RV_antenna

   [9] [better source needed] A length of at least 20 metres (66 ft) of 75 Ω (50 Ω) cable is recommended for operation without a balun. [10] [11] A transmatch (antenna tuner) is not required to use this antenna near its nominal design frequency of 14 MHz, and judicious length adjustments can sometimes include one other frequency band. All other ...

3. Umbrella antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbrella_antenna

   The antenna must be very large at the VLF frequencies used; the supporting masts are 250–300 metres (820–980 ft) high, and the topload is about 1,900 metres (6,200 ft) in diameter. The trideco antenna was developed for high power naval transmitters, which transmit on frequencies between 15 and 30 kHz at powers up to 2 megawatts, to ...

4. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   The antenna used for broadcasting through the 1920s was the T-antenna, which consisted of two masts with loading wires on top, strung between them, requiring twice the construction costs and land area of a single mast. [2] (pp 77–78) In 1924 Stuart Ballantine published two historic papers which led to the development of the single mast antenna.

5. Guyed mast - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guyed_mast

   Guyed masts are frequently used for radio masts and towers. The mast can either support radio antennas (for VHF, UHF and other microwave bands) mounted at its top, or the entire structure itself can function as a mast radiator antenna (for VLF, LF, MF). In the latter case, the mast needs to be insulated from the ground. Guyed radio masts are ...

6. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

   The antenna is made of a narrow helix of wire like a spring, which functions as the needed inductor. The springy wire is flexible, making it less prone to damage than a stiff antenna. The spring antenna is further enclosed in a plastic or rubber-like covering to protect it. The technical name for this type of antenna is a normal-mode helix. [7]

7. Horn antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horn_antenna

   Probably the most photographed and well-known example is the 15-meter-long (50-foot) Holmdel Horn Antenna [21] at Bell Labs in Holmdel, New Jersey, with which Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson discovered cosmic microwave background radiation in 1965, for which they won the 1978 Nobel Prize in Physics.
