You will find several very good articles regarding the Moxon antennas for
HF-VHF at the www.cebik.com web site. He has a specific article about
building a Moxon antenna for 6M at:
	http://www.cebik.com/6m.html

I highly recommend this web site for all inquiries about building antennas
for any ham band. And he has a generous section of information regarding
the use and pitfalls of antenna modeling software. 

I seem to recall an article in a magazine or on the web about building a
Moxon antenna from wire using fiberglass X spreaders coming out from the
central mast. This might be an even lighter configuration for a portable
system. My best guess is that it was another cebik.com article but probably
from the low HF or WARC band designs.....

I need to take some time to build the 6M turnstile from May 2002 QST. I
keep looking for a simple omni antenna so I don't need to put a rotor back
on my chimney.....

Have fun building!
