Moxon Mania - Building the Ultimate 4-Band Moxon Antenna - The article details the design and construction of a four-band Moxon beam by a radio amateur. The beam, mounted atop a rooftop tower, aimed for gain over a dipole on 20 meters, cost under $500, and included additional bands. The design features fiberglass spreaders, four bands (20/15/10/6 meters), and a single feedpoint. The construction involved computer modeling, NEC source code, and specific dimensions. The article outlines the assembly, materials, and tuning process, including in-situ adjustments for optimal performance. Despite initial challenges, the beam improved signal strength and facilitated contacts on multiple bands, marking it as the best HF antenna the author has owned.

Reversible 40 Meter Moxon - The author wants a compact, switchable antenna for 40-meter ham radio. They compare 3 designs: rectangle, short-tipped W6NL, and T-hat. All work well electrically, but mechanics matter for a large antenna. The rectangle needs strong support, while the T-hat is sturdier with slightly longer elements. The T-hat design wins for now, but the author will focus on its mechanical details next.
