Default Re: Multiple radios running off one aerial (MW LW)

Another domestic example of an AM aerial system with multi-receiver capability was the RCA Magic Wave Antenna of c.1937. This appears to have been an anti-noise system, with matching transformers at the aerial and receiver ends and screened twin feeder in between. For use with multiple receivers a distribution transformer was available, one in, four out, from which feeders ran to individual receiver matching transformers.


Cheers,
