Best Answer

The half-wave, center-fed 'dipole' antenna is probably the antenna that's simplest

to design, and easiest to build and operate.

For 100 MHz, it's a single wire, supported at its ends and insulated from the supports,

hung horizontally, opened and connected to a 75-ohm coaxial cable at its center, with

an overall length of 4 feet 11 inches (1.5 meters).

How does a radio signal go from a disc jockey speaking into a microphone at a radio station to your ear?

In the microphone, there is a diaphragm, which converts the DJ's voice into an electrical signal. This signal is sent along the wire to the antenna, which broadcasts it into the ether. Your home radio receives the signal through its aerial, then converts the signal from an electrical signal to audio - which is detected by your ear.


What part or components of the radio tuner intercepts and coLLects the radio signal?

That would be the antenna ... before anything ever reaches the components of the tuner. The purpose of the antenna is to collect an electrical current in the conductor as the electromagnetic waves fly by it. Once you have that current, you're ready to extract useful material from it ... -- selecting the one signal you want from the hundreds that have created a current in your antenna; -- sifting the actual radio signal out of all the natural and man-made noises that also created currents in your antenna; -- stripping the information (intelligence ??) off of the signal; -- converting the electrical signal representing the information into a form that you can observe with your senses ... typically listening to it or viewing it.
