Indoor television antenna, model АТП-6.8 "Саяны" (Sayany)

Object/Artifact

Soviet adjustable indoor ("rabbit-ear") television antenna. A low cream/ivory plastic base supports two chrome-plated telescoping metal rods set in black plastic pivot blocks, allowing each rod to be extended and angled. The top of the base carries two black sliding controls (the tuning/adjustment function) and the molded brand name; the long side is embossed "Саяны." A two-conductor lead-in cable exits the base. The model designation, descriptive text, year, and a manufacturer's logo are molded into the grey underside.

model name

Type/model: "АТП" denotes антенна телевизионная (комнатная) перестраиваемая — an indoor tunable television antenna, a standard Soviet category produced under GOST by several plants in numbered variants (e.g., АТП-6.5, АТП-6.20). These indoor tunable antennas open out symmetrically to extend their reach. "Саяны" (the Sayan Mountains of southern Siberia) is the trade/model name.
