Using callsign M0XXT (for QSL purposes), I’ll be firing up the Signature 12.4, TS-990s and Acom 2000 for some fun and games today. NEXT WEEK, we will start later and see what 10m is like. CHeers from Middle England, Callum.
The Moxon antenna is a popular directional 2 element beam antenna that takes up less space (75%) than a standard yagi.
Our Field Day is coming up, so we decided to build one for the 6 meter band and demonstrate the fun that can be had building and experimenting with antennas!
Another SUPER SIMPLE Antenna to Build for 6 Meters! 👉 https://youtu.be/4h7UGNbWmsY
