Antennas like this are sometimes called receivers. A transmitter is a different kind of antenna that does the opposite job to a receiver: it turns electrical signals into radio waves so they can travel sometimes thousands of kilometers around the Earth or even into space and back.rtwork: How a wave travels from a transmitter to a receiver: 1) By line of sight; 2) By ground wave; 3) Via the ionosphere. Photo: This telescopic FM radio antenna pulls out to a length of about 1-2m (3-6ft or so), which is roughly half the length of the radio waves it's trying to capture.
