Electric devices on them are fed via cables running through the coils of a parallel resonance circuit which is switched in parallel to the transmitter output.
For high power transmitters in the MW range, masts with lengths around half of the radiated wavelength are preferred because they focus the radiated power better to the ground than constructions with heights of quarter wavelengths, which are preferred of economical reasons for low power medium wave transmitters.
For longwave transmitters, however, the construction of masts with heights of half-wave wavelength is, because of economical reasons (and perhaps problems with the flight safety), in most cases impossible.

There are two main classes of systems: independent sideband (ISB) systems, promoted principally by American broadcast engineer Leonard Kahn ; and quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) multiplexing systems (conceptually closer to FM stereo), of which the best known is Motorola's C-QUAM.
A famous European transmitter using AM stereo is Villebon sur Yvette on 864 kHz, which tranmits Radio Bleue.
With the advent of digital radio technologies, particularly in-band on-channel systems, AM stereo will likely become obsolete.
