2. Antenna farm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_farm

   Antennas on Mount Wilson, covered in ice. Where terrain and road access allows, mountaintop sites are very attractive for non-AM broadcast stations and others, because it increases the stations' height above average terrain, allowing them to reach further by avoiding obstructions on the ground, and by increasing the radio horizon.

3. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   One problem with radio masts is the danger of wind-induced oscillations. This is particularly a concern with steel tube construction. One can reduce this by building cylindrical shock-mounts into the construction. One finds such shock-mounts, which look like cylinders thicker than the mast, for example, at the radio masts of DHO38 in Saterland.

4. Tower Mounted Amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_Mounted_Amplifier

   Crowded mast with TMAs (white rectangular boxes) mounted behind all the panel (rectangular) antennas. A Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA), or Mast Head Amplifier (MHA), is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) mounted as close as practical to the antenna in mobile masts or base transceiver stations.

5. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   The category of simple antennas consists of dipoles, monopoles, and loop antennas. Nearly all can be made with a single segment of wire (ignoring the break made in the wire for the feedline connection). [citation needed] Dipoles and monopoles called linear antennas (or straight wire antennas) since their radiating parts lie along a single ...

6. Citizens band radio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_band_radio

   Base CB antennas may be vertical for omnidirectional coverage, or directional "beam" antennas may be used to direct communications to a particular region. Ground-plane kits exist as mounting bases for mobile whips, and have several wire terminals or hardwired ground radials attached.

7. Altazimuth mount - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altazimuth_mount

   These mounts are used, for example, with telescopes, cameras, radio antennas, heliostat mirrors, solar panels, and guns and similar weapons. Several names are given to this kind of mount, including altitude-azimuth, azimuth-elevation and various abbreviations thereof.
