  2. G5RV antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G5RV_antenna

    Louis Varney (G5RV) invented this antenna in 1946. [4] It is very popular in the United States. [5] The antenna can be erected as horizontal dipole, as sloper, or an inverted-V antenna. With a transmatch, (antenna tuner) it can operate on all HF amateur radio bands (3.5–30 MHz). [5] [6]

  3. Rubber ducky antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_ducky_antenna

    Antennas which have these inductors built into their bases are called base-loaded whips. The rubber ducky is an electrically short quarter-wave antenna in which the inductor, instead of being in the base, is built into the antenna itself. The antenna is made of a narrow helix of wire like a spring, which functions as the needed inductor. The ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adcock_antenna

    The Adcock antenna is an antenna array consisting of four equidistant vertical elements which can be used to transmit or receive directional radio waves. The Adcock array was invented and patented by British engineer Frank Adcock and since his August 1919 British Patent No. 130,490, the 'Adcock Aerial' has been used for a variety of ...

  5. Whip antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip_antenna

    A whip antenna is an antenna consisting of a straight flexible wire or rod. The bottom end of the whip is connected to the radio receiver or transmitter. A whip antenna is a form of monopole antenna. 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 ...

  6. Dipole antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole_antenna

    The bow-tie antenna is a dipole with flaring, triangular shaped arms. The shape gives it a much wider bandwidth than an ordinary dipole. It is widely used in UHF television antennas. Cage dipole antennas in the Ukrainian UTR-2 radio telescope. The 8 m by 1.8 m diameter galvanized steel wire dipoles have a bandwidth of 8–33 MHz.

  7. Parabolic antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_antenna

    The radio waves are emitted back toward the dish by the feed antenna and reflect off the dish into a parallel beam. In a receiving antenna the incoming radio waves bounce off the dish and are focused to a point at the feed antenna, which converts them into electric currents which travel through a transmission line to the radio receiver.
