Moxon Rectangles

L. B. Cebik, W4RNL

The Moxon Rectangle is growing in popularity as a compact 2-element array that approaches a full-size 2-element in gain but with a far superior front-to-back ratio and a direct match for the standard 50-Ohm coaxial cable. The antenna can be built as a wire array--especialy for the lower HF regions--or as a rotateable alumunum beam. For convenience, I have pulled together the growing selection of Moxon Rectangle notes into this single subdirectory and organized them in the order of recommended reading--unless you already know what you are looking for.
