radio tower
Signal transmission structure
A radio tower is a tall structure designed to support antennas that transmit or receive radio waves for broadcasting, telecommunications, or other wireless communication.
These towers range from modest heights for local stations to massive structures exceeding a thousand feet for powerful AM transmitters.
The term covers various designs including lattice towers, guyed masts, and monopoles.
The red lights on the radio tower blinked all night.
