The extension also had inductors at the far end, such that each part of the antenna had inductors at its ends. In 1925, the two parts of the antenna were split, each now operating separately (the original as callsign MUU, the 1924 antenna as GLC), a new feed taken up the mountain from the western transmitter buildings to the site of the double ATI.
RCA manufactured equipment, such as oscilloscopes, for repairing radios, RCA Graphic Systems Division (GSD) was an early supplier of electronics designed for the printing and publishing industries. It contracted with German company Rudolf Hell to market adaptations of the Digiset photocomposition system as the Videocomp, and a Laser Color ...
The next 14 units RCA produced (also delivered in 1940) were denoted "CXAM-1" and were slight improvements over the CXAM design. These were installed on the battleships Texas (in October 1941), Pennsylvania , West Virginia , North Carolina , and Washington ; on the aircraft carriers Lexington , Saratoga , Ranger , Enterprise , and Wasp ; on the ...
An antenna rotator (or antenna rotor) is a device used to change the orientation, within the horizontal plane, of a directional antenna. Most antenna rotators have two parts, the rotator unit and the controller. The controller is normally placed near the equipment which the antenna is connected to, while the rotator is mounted on the antenna ...

The Beverage antenna or "wave antenna" is a long-wire receiving antenna mainly used in the low frequency and medium frequency radio bands, invented by Harold H. Beverage in 1921. [1] It is used by amateur radio operators, shortwave listeners, longwave radio DXers and for military applications.
The RCA connector [3] is a type of electrical connector commonly used to carry audio and video signals. The name RCA derives from the company Radio Corporation of America, which introduced the design in the 1930s. [4] The connector’s male plug and female jack are called RCA plug and RCA jack. It is also called RCA phono connector [5] or phono ...
This subsection could also be named "phased arrays", a type of composite directional antenna where the various component simple antennas are laid out a large fraction of a wavelength apart, with each antenna's feedline's phase individually shifted, so that the signal from a radio wave moving in some selected direction across the layout of the ...
