2. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   Masts of the Rugby VLF transmitter near Rugby, England. By 1930 the expense of the T-antenna led broadcasters to adopt the mast radiator antenna, in which the metal structure of the mast itself functions as the antenna. [2] (pp 79–81) One of the first types used was the diamond cantilever or Blaw-Knox tower.

3. Mast radiator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mast_radiator

   By 1930 the disadvantages of the T antenna led broadcasters to adopt the mast radiator antenna. [9] One of the first types used was the diamond cantilever or Blaw-Knox tower. This had a diamond (rhombohedral) shape which made it rigid, so only one set of guy lines was needed, at its wide waist. The pointed lower end of the antenna ended in a ...

4. 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. Television antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

   Outdoor antennas on the other hand are designed to be mounted on a mast on top of the owner's house, [4] or in a loft or attic where the dry conditions and increased elevation are advantageous for reception and antenna longevity. Outdoor antennas are more expensive and difficult to install but are necessary for adequate reception in fringe ...

7. Tower array - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_array

   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.
