The antenna used for broadcasting through the 1920s was the T-antenna, which consisted of two masts with loading wires on top, strung between them, requiring twice the construction costs and land area of a single mast. [2] (pp 77–78) In 1924 Stuart Ballantine published two historic papers which led to the development of the single mast antenna.
One mast, number 13, collapsed during construction. It was rebuilt and reassigned as mast 17. A double antenna tuning inductor house near the summit of Cefn Du and to the rear of the 1914 antenna, served to tune the antenna and earth screens of what were now two parts of a whole antenna, fed at the western transmitter building.
An umbrella antenna consists of a central radiating tower with multiple wires attached at the top as a "capacitance hat", that extend out radially from the mast and are insulated at their ends; the overhead configuration resembles an open metal umbrella frame, hence the name "umbrella antenna".
They all have masts or towers to install antenna systems. In most cases, the mast is a passive structure to support the antennas. But in low frequency stations (such as AM radio), the mast itself may be the active antenna element. In such cases, the mast is isolated from the ground.(See Monopole antenna). If the mast itself is an active antenna ...
By 1930 the disadvantages of the T antenna led broadcasters to adopt the mast radiator antenna. [9] One of the first types used was the diamond cantilever or Blaw-Knox tower. This had a diamond (rhombohedral) shape which made it rigid, so only one set of guy lines was needed, at its wide waist. The pointed lower end of the antenna ended in a ...
