Tonight’s Program:  Making and Using Moxon Antennas in the Field

By Garry Spicer VE6GDS and Ian Drummond VE6IXD

Moxon antennas are easy to make and easy to deploy in the field, particularly for the UHF and VHF bands. Garry and Ian have been working on a project to document the construction and use of the antennas for portable operation.

Garry will start the presentation by describing what a Moxon antenna is and when a Moxon antenna might be useful. He will include design tools and performance information.

Ian will then show pictures of how he has used Moxon antennas for VHF and HF operations before moving on to the suggested method of construction. He makes the antennas using ¼” copper tubing and PVC conduit from your local hardware store.

We will also describe the “Moxon Triad” project, which is an easily deployed antenna for use where there are multiple repeaters in range and reflections cause multi-path fading.

 

Hope to see you on Zoom!

Best 73,

Jerry VE6TL
