The antenna works best at a length that is a fraction of the wavelength it is receiving. Usually 1/4. This is because of resonance between the aerial and the signals carrier wave. The shorter the wave the shorter the aerial.
You have to "loop through" the aerial. That is - you plug the aerial directly into the Freeview box and then use a short link cable to connect the Freeview box to the tv aerial socket. Most Freeview boxes come with this short lead in the carton. It's easy and obvious how to do this (when you see the equipment) and it enables you to watch existing analogue transmissions until they're finally switched off.
Just like any other aerial bomb from an airplane.
The Doppler effect is used in radar to provide information regarding the speed of moving targets by measuring the frequency shift between the emitted and the reflected radiation. A transmitter produces pulsed radio frequency radiation. It is fed to a movable aerial from which it is transmitted as a beam. When the beam strikes the moving vehicle a part of the energy of the radiation is reflected back to the aerial. Signals received by the aerial are passed to the receiver, where they are amplified and detected. There will be a shift in frequency of the reflected wave and emitted wave due to the Doppler effect. The apparent frequency of the reflected wave is given by F = f ( 1 - v/c ) where v is the speed at which the source and the observer are moving apart and c is the speed of electromagnetic radiation, f is the real frequency or the frequency of the emitted signal The output of the detector is usually displayed on a cathode ray tube. The apparent frequency is measured and thus the speed of the vehicle is calculated. A heterodyne device may also be used in which beats are produced by superimposing the emitted radio wave over the reflected (from the vehicle) radio wave. In the heterodyne wave meter, a variable frequency local oscillator is adjusted to give predetermined beat frequency with the incoming reflected wave, enabling the frequency of the reflected wave which has had Doppler shift to be determined. Thus the speed of the vehicle can be determined.
Yes, since metal plate or any other types of metals have free electrons they can absorb radiowaves since radiowaves travel through free electrons.
I doubt it ! All the old analogue transmitters that used to broadcast TV signals have been turned off. The old analogue frequencies will eventually be re-assigned to new services - not necessarily TV pictures.
As an adjective, aerial mens "living or taking place in the air".As a noun, an aerial is a rod or wire which receives or transmits radio and television signals.
An aerial length of 750 metres is required
the ground for the rear lights is by the radio aerial inside the rear passanger side wing.

Ferrite rings around cables are there to filter out unwanted high frequency signals that can cause interference to the wanted signals in the cable, or to prevent the cable from acting as a transmitting aerial that might affect other nearby systems.
The most common mode of transmission of TV signals are digital satellite and cable. New technologies allow transmission of signals by digital terrestrial TV, using aerial broadcasts to a conventional antenna. This provides a greater number of channels and a better picture and sound quality.

Road flares are commonly used by civilians for signals and may be ignited on the ground or fired as an aerial signal from a pistol-like flare gun or launched from a self-contained tube.
Mating Eagles have a spectacular aerial display. The Aerial on my car was bent by some vandal.
this is an aerial.
The radio signal was pulled in through the aerial. The aerial acrobatics of the small plane amazed everyone. The aerial mines were a new tactic.
