Invented by Les Moxon, G6XN, the MOXON is a stealthy gain antenna that's inexpensive and fun to build. It's a great Saturday antenna project especially for new hams seeking their first gain antenna. This antenna can be mounted on a simple push-up mast and rotated by hand or with an inexpensive light duty rotor.

The gain is higher on the beginning of the band and lower at the end. The bandwidth for a SWR < 1,5 is great enough for the range of 28,0-28,7 and 21,0-21,45 MHz if the beam is built up with aluminium tubes. Wire-beams of the Moxon-type have a smaller bandwidth.

The Moxon antenna or Moxon rectangle is a simple and mechanically rugged two-element parasitic array, single-frequency antenna. [1] It takes its name from the amateur radio operator and antenna handbook author Les Moxon [ 2 ] ( call sign G6XN).

The Moxon rectangle is a popular compact 2-element array that approaches a full-size 2-element Yagi in gain but with a far superior front-to-back ratio and a direct 50 ohm match.

According to Cebik's pages on wire beams, compared to the X, hex and vk special, the moxon has the greatest forward gain and the greatest front to back of all wire beams he reviewed. My good friend Ron, AB0YY and I have tested our moxons.

Compared to a regular 2-element Yagi, an equivalent Moxon will yield a forward gain only 0.2 dB less. But it’s distinct lack of rear lobes is remarkable, reliably down 20 dB versus only 10-12 dB for the regular Yagi. It achieves this in a manner similar to a loop-fed array (LFA) Yagi via the added coupling provided by the end wires.

2024年1月22日 · The Moxon antenna (invented by Les Moxon (SK 2004), G6XN) is sort of a two element yagi with the elements folded and spaced to eliminate the need for an impedance match. The moxon can be further simplified by also eliminating the yagi's boom support.

The DK7ZB-Dualband-Moxon-Beam for 10 m and 6 m One feedpoint with 50 Ohm for both bands! This Minibeam has for 28 MHz 2/3 of the dimensions of a fullsize-beam and is an open-sleeve-fed 2-El.-Yagi for 50 MHz

The MOXON is a stealthy gain antenna invented by Les Moxon, G6XN, that's inexpensive and fun to build. All information about how to project your moxon antenna and other resources (photo, project requirements, etc) are explained on Moxon home page .

2024年1月1日 · A 3-element Moxon antenna is a directional antenna with two active elements and one reflector. It typically offers 3-6 dBi gain, has a narrow radiation pattern, and is customizable in size depending on the desired frequency.
