    A TURF (Tuning Unit Radio Frequency) is an Antenna Tuning Unit or ATU. It is used to artificially lengthen the antenna (or tune it) Often at HF wavelengths for example an antenna would be physically too long to attach to a radio without affecting portability and manoeuvrability.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tuner

    An antenna tuner, a matchbox, transmatch, antenna tuning unit (ATU), antenna coupler, or feedline coupler is a device connected between a radio transmitter or receiver and its antenna to improve power transfer between them by matching the impedance of the radio to the antenna's feedline. Antenna tuners are particularly important for use with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tuning_hut

    The radio frequency current from the transmitter is supplied to the antenna through a cable called the feedline.The antenna tuning hut contains a matching network made of high wattage capacitors and inductors (coils) that in combination match the antenna's impedance to the feedline, to efficiently transfer power into the antenna.

    A Sailor VHF DSC unit. Digital selective calling (DSC) is a standard for transmitting predefined digital messages via the medium-frequency (MF), high-frequency (HF) and very-high-frequency (VHF) maritime radio systems. It is a core part of the Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS). [1]

    Marantz 2050L AM/FM stereo tuner (USA; 1978-1980) [1]. In electronics and radio, a tuner is a type of receiver subsystem that receives RF transmissions, such as AM or FM broadcasts, and converts the selected carrier frequency into a form suitable for further processing or output, such as to an amplifier or loudspeaker.

  7. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

    The antenna gain, or power gain of an antenna is defined as the ratio of the intensity (power per unit surface area) radiated by the antenna in the direction of its maximum output, at an arbitrary distance, divided by the intensity radiated at the same distance by a hypothetical isotropic antenna which radiates equal power in all directions.

  8. Antenna tracking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tracking_system

    An antenna control unit utilizes the resulting difference signal to select the optimum signal strength for the particular step of the search pattern. This system is particularly applicable to extremely high frequency communication channels (86 GHz and above) which are subject to atmospheric distortion and noise .

    A horn antenna has a flaring metal horn attached to a waveguide. It is a simple antenna with moderate gain of 15 to 25 dBi, used for applications such as radar guns, radiometers, and as feed antennas for parabolic dishes. Slot Consists of a waveguide with one or more slots cut in it to emit the microwaves. Linear slot antennas emit narrow fan ...
