2. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   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.

3. Mast radiator - Wikipedia

   Base feed: Radio frequency power is fed to the mast by a wire attached to it, which comes from a matching network inside the "antenna tuning hut" at right. The brown ceramic insulator at the base keeps the mast electrically insulated from the ground. On the left there is an earthing switch and a spark gap for lightning protection.

4. Guy-wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy-wire

   A guy-wire, guy-line, guy-rope, down guy, or stay, also called simply a guy, is a tensioned cable designed to add stability to a freestanding structure. They are used commonly for ship masts, radio masts, wind turbines, utility poles, and tents. A thin vertical mast supported by guy wires is called a guyed mast.

5. Antenna types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_types

   If used for transmitting, the resistor makes traveling-wave antennas inefficient, since the resistor absorbs any radio wave after the wave has made a single pass through the antenna wire, as opposed to a resonant antenna in which radio waves cycle back-and-forth several times, giving the signal multiple opportunities to radate.

6. Guyed mast - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guyed_mast

   Guyed masts are frequently used for radio masts and towers. The mast can either support radio antennas (for VHF, UHF and other microwave bands) mounted at its top, or the entire structure itself can function as a mast radiator antenna (for VLF, LF, MF). In the latter case, the mast needs to be insulated from the ground. Guyed radio masts are ...

7. Monopole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopole_antenna

   A monopole antenna is a class of radio antenna consisting of a straight rod-shaped conductor, often mounted perpendicularly over some type of conductive surface, called a ground plane. [1] [2] The current from the transmitter is applied, or for receiving antennas the output signal voltage to the receiver is taken, between the monopole and the ...
