  2. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

    A radio mast base showing how virtually all lateral support is provided by the guy-wires. The terms "mast" and "tower" are often used interchangeably. However, in structural engineering terms, a tower is a self-supporting or cantilevered structure, while a mast is held up by stays or guy-wires. [1] A mast

  3. Mast radiator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mast_radiator

    Series excited (base feed): the mast is supported on an insulator, and is fed at the bottom; one side of the feedline from the helix house is connected to the bottom of the mast and the other to a ground system under the mast. This is the most common feed type, used in most AM radio station masts. [4] [6]

  4. Cell site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_site

    Cellular lattice tower A cell tower in Peristeri, Greece. A cell site, cell phone tower, cell base tower, or cellular base station is a cellular-enabled mobile device site where antennas and electronic communications equipment are placed (typically on a radio mast, tower, or other raised structure) to create a cell, or adjacent cells, in a cellular network.

  5. Guyed mast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guyed_mast

    A guyed radio mast. A guyed mast is a tall thin vertical structure that depends on guy lines (diagonal tensioned cables attached to the ground or a base) for stability. The mast itself has the compressive strength to support its own weight, but does not have the shear strength to stand unsupported or bear loads.

  6. Blaw-Knox tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaw-Knox_tower

    The diamond-shaped tower was patented by Nicholas Gerten and Ralph Jenner for Blaw-Knox July 29, 1930. [5] and was one of the first mast radiators.[1] [6] Previous antennas for medium and longwave broadcasting usually consisted of wires strung between masts, but in the Blaw-Knox antenna, as in modern AM broadcasting mast radiators, the metal mast structure functioned as the antenna. [1]
