A Motorola connector (also called a Motorola antenna plug [citation needed] or a male DIN 41585 [1]) is a common coaxial cable RF connector used primarily in the automotive industry for connecting the coaxial feedline from the antenna to the radio receiver. It is also sometimes used for connecting scanner antennas to scanners.
The IC-7100 allows for connection to a computer over USB which enables the radio to be used for popular digital modes such as FT8, Winlink, and Packet Operation. [3] Locations of nearby repeaters and sending APRS locations can be done with an optional GPS receiver attachment. [1] Notable features that the IC-7100 lacks is an internal antenna ...
A digital TV converter box. A digital television adapter (DTA), commonly known as a converter box, DTV converter , or decoder box, is a television tuner that receives a digital television (DTV) transmission, and converts the digital signal into an analog signal that can be received and displayed on an analog television set.
Block diagram of a superheterodyne receiver. The RF front end consists of the components on the left colored red. In a radio receiver circuit, the RF front end , short for radio frequency front end , is a generic term for all the circuitry between a receiver's antenna input up to and including the mixer stage.

Such tuners are usually integrated into a television set, VCR, digital video recorder (DVR), or set-top box which provides audio/video output connectors of various types. [ citation needed ] Another type of television tuner is a digital television adapter (DTA) with an analog passthrough .
In electronics, an antenna amplifier (also: aerial amplifier or booster) is a device that amplifies an antenna signal, usually into an output with the same impedance as the input impedance. Typically 75 ohm for coaxial cable and 300 ohm for twin-lead cable. An antenna amplifier boosts a radio signal considerably for devices that receive radio ...
A planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) is used for wireless circuitry implemented in microstrip.The microstrip format is the format of choice for modern RF electronics. It can be used to implement required distributed-element RF components such as filters, while at the same time being economical because the same mass production methods are used as for printed circuit boards.
A reconfigurable antenna is an antenna capable of modifying its frequency and radiation properties dynamically, in a controlled and reversible manner. [2] In order to provide a dynamic response, reconfigurable antennas integrate an inner mechanism (such as RF switches, varactors, mechanical actuators or tunable materials) that enable the intentional redistribution of the RF currents over the ...
