antennas
Rooftop broadcast equipment
Antennas is the usual plural of antenna when referring to devices that transmit or receive radio waves: television antennas, cell phone antennas.
For the sensory appendages on insects and crustaceans, antennae is standard.
Figuratively, to have your antennas up is to be alert and receptive to signals—here either plural works.
