As part of the ongoing AugerPrime upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we are deploying short aperiodic loaded loop antennas measuring radio signals from extensive air showers in the 30 - 80MHz band on each of the 1,660 surface detector stations. This new Radio Detector of the Observatory allows us to measure the energy in the electromagnetic cascade of inclined air showers with zenith angles larger than similar to 65 degrees. The water-Cherenkov detectors, in turn, perform a virtually pure measurement of the muon component of inclined air showers.
