The Dual-Band Wire Beam was inspired by L.B. Cebik's (W4RNL) article The Elusive Moxon Nest. Fiberglass tubing spreaders, Flexweave elements, an aluminum hub, and two die-cast aluminum flanges combine to provide a 12/17m Moxon nest with one 50 ohm feed. -
Located in France, DXBeam designs and manufactures a range of monoband, dual band and triband antennas, rotary dipoles, Moxons and Yagis -
Antenna was designed for SO-50 satellite operation but can be used for any VHF/UHF activity. It's a mix of a Moxon Antenna and a Yagi antenna. It has gains 4 dBd on 2m and 6.5 dBd on 70cm bands and it is fed via single 50 Ohm cable. -
The antenna is a VHF side is a 2m moxon, tuned on 145.825 MHz. The driven element of the moxon couples to a driven element for a 5 element 70cms Yagi, tuned on 436.5 MHz. -
How to make a dual-band VHF/UHF handheld Moxon Antenna to work satellites -
This small dual band UHF VHF directional antenna is good choice for portable operations. This antenna is composed by a moxon antenna for the two meters band and it includes two parastatic elements for 70 cm band. -
This project involves constructing a dual-band Moxon antenna, optimized for ham radio enthusiasts, with functionality on both the 10-meter and 6-meter bands. The antenna is designed to operate using a single 50-ohm feedpoint, acting as a mini-beam on 28 MHz (10 meters) and as a 2-element Yagi on 50 MHz (6 meters). Performance-wise, it offers a 4.0 dBd gain on 10 meters and 4.3 dBd on 6 meters, with impressive front-to-back ratios of 30 dB and 11 dB, respectively. Builders like Aleks (S54S) and Marcio (PY2OK) have successfully brought this design to life using the provided specifications. Aleks noted that bending the corners of the structure proved especially useful during assembly. The project comes with a detailed parts list, highlighting the use of aluminum tubes with different diameters and lengths to form essential components like the reflectors and radiators. For those looking to fine-tune the antenna, adjustments can be made by altering the length of certain parts that fit into larger tubes. The feeding system is equipped with a balun to accommodate different power levels, making the design versatile enough to handle outputs of either 300 watts or 1 kilowatt.
