2. Citizens band radio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_band_radio

   Typical center-loaded mobile CB antenna. Note the loading coil, which shortens the antenna's overall length. 27 MHz is a relatively long wavelength for mobile communications, and the choice of antenna has a considerable impact on the performance of a CB radio. A common mobile antenna is a quarter-wave vertical whip.

3. Quad antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quad_antenna

   A two-element quad antenna used by an amateur radio station A 4-element amateur radio quad antenna. The two men working on it show the scale. The wire loops are almost invisible, suspended on the ends of the crossed supports. A quad antenna is a type of directional wire radio antenna used on the HF and VHF bands.

4. Parabolic torus reflector antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_torus_reflector...

   Form of classic parabolic dish antenna and parabolic torus reflector antenna Simulsat antenna in Miami with casing for several LNBs. A parabolic torus reflector antenna is a quasi-parabolic antenna, where the defining parabola is not rotated around the main transmission axis, but around an axis which stands vertically to this axis.

5. Loop antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_antenna

   Small-loop receiving antennas are also almost always resonated using a parallel-plate capacitor, which makes their reception narrow-band, sensitive only to a very specific frequency. This allows the antenna, in conjunction with a (variable) tuning capacitor, to act as a tuned input stage to the receiver's front-end, in lieu of a preselector.

6. Antenna rotator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_rotator

   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 ...

7. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

   Antenna reactance may be removed using lumped elements, such as capacitors or inductors in the main path of current traversing the antenna, often near the feedpoint, or by incorporating capacitive or inductive structures into the conducting body of the antenna to cancel the feedpoint reactance – such as open-ended "spoke" radial wires, or ...
