ABSTRACT:
In an ultra high frequency (UHF), high power broadcast television (TV) antenna system that includes a radiating antenna located at the top of a tower structure many hundreds of feet high, a transmitter at the bottom of the tower and a circular waveguide transmission line between the transmitter and the antenna carried by the tower, an undesired polarization mode that is transverse to the desired polarization mode for which the antenna system is adjusted is excluded at the top of the tower structure at the end of the circular waveguide transmission line so that the undesired polarization mode does not energize the radiating antenna and, in particular, the undesired polarization mode does not energize the antenna and produce a ghost image in a TV receiver after reflecting from the bottom end of the circular waveguide transmission line back up to the antenna and does not add a standing wave in the circular waveguide transmission line.
