Technical

An Harris model SX-1A all solid state transmitter (featuring their patented "Polyphase" pulse duration modulator) fed a T-match network that provided impedance matching into a slant wire fed quarter wave monopole that was grounded at its base. A slant wire feed is an old grand-fathered (now obsolete) method that made it easier to install additional antennas on the tower without the need for the costly base insulator or isocouplers.
