A broadcast tower is a tall structure designed to transmit radio, television, or other signals over long distances. These towers are equipped with antennas that send out electromagnetic waves, allowing people to receive broadcasts on their radios and televisions. The height of the tower helps to extend the range of the signal, ensuring clearer reception for viewers and listeners. Broadcast towers can be found in various locations, often on hills or open areas to maximize coverage. They are essential for communication, enabling the distribution of news, entertainment, and emergency information to the public. Related technologies include radio waves and television signals.
