"K8WBL'S MULTI BAND MOXON"
Hello Steve, I told the group some time ago I would send them
some pics of my Moxon, been up about a year now, but recently modified
again. Boom is 2 inch PVC, aluminum elements, 25 foot reflector and
Director, 10 foot boom. Tuned for 20 and 17 Meters,but fed with 450
ohm ladder line into balanced tuner. I have found that this works
excellent on 20/17 meters, but also has signficant gain and f/b on 15
and 10 meters. I also use it as a listening antenna on 40/75 Meters as
well as Short Wave Broadcast bands, it is tunable and actually
usable. The gain is not as good as a full size dipole but it does cut
down QRN substantially and in effect I can hear stations on this better
than on the dipole most of the time. Directional as well.
