Antenna Correspondence Unit

This unit includes correspondence from 1935-1940 originally filed by Kraus in a single folder labeled "Antenna Correspondence." The majority of the correspondence is on the flat top beam antenna, but other types of antennas, their construction and operation, and other issues related to antennas are also discussed. Kraus labeled one small subset of the correspondence as "Used in Big Ear" and another as "Not yet used." Remaining correspondence in the unit has been divided by year, but not sorted or indexed otherwise. See also the Amateur Radio Miscellaneous correspondence in the General Correspondence Series. Correspondence related to the efforts to save the Big Ear telescope and its subsequent demolition is filed with the Big Ear telescope materials in the Antennas Unit of the Notes and Papers Series.
