A mast radiator or mast antenna is a radio tower or mast in which the whole structure is an antenna. Mast antennas are the transmitting antennas typical for long or medium wave broadcasting. Structurally, the only difference is that some mast radiators require the mast base to be insulated from the ground.
Single-armed antennas, like a single "telescoping" antenna. At the lowest resonant frequency that arm is slightly under a quarter-wave long. Both dipoles and monopoles are often built large enough to be self-resonant; usually each arm is a quarter-wave long.
Radio masts and towers support antennas (also known as aerials) for telecommunications and broadcasting, including television. Subcategories This category has the following 4 subcategories, out of 4 total.
A mast radiator (or radiating tower) is a radio mast or tower in which the metal structure itself is energized and functions as an antenna. This design, first used widely in the 1930s, is commonly used for transmitting antennas operating at low frequencies , in the LF and MF bands, in particular those used for AM radio broadcasting stations.
An amateur radio cage 'T'-antenna 18-metre-high (60 ft) by 27-metre-long (90 ft) built in 1922, owned by the Historic Radio Engineers Club, Riverhead, New York. The conductor is made of a 'cage' of 6 wires held apart by wooden spreaders. This antenna achieved transatlantic contacts on 1.5 MHz, at a power of 440 W.
The antenna is designed to be flexible so that it does not break easily, and the name is derived from the whip-like motion that it exhibits when disturbed. Whip antennas for portable radios are often made of a series of interlocking telescoping metal tubes, so they can be retracted when not in use.
