[nrv-hams] FW: Antenna building

[Carter Craigie]

Please answer the following

questions:

 

1.  Who are you and what is your call sign? Carter Craigie, N3AO

 

2.  Do you want the antenna for fixed, portable operation, or both? For
Portable operation, mainly.

 

3.  What type of connector do you need on the coaxial cable that goes to
your 2M rig? SO-239 VHF male connector

 

4.  How long a cable do you plan between your rig and the antenna? Between
15-25 feet long, and I can supply lots of Mini-X (RG-8X) coax, I think...

 

5.  If you are thinking about portable operation, do you have a method of
supporting the antenna?  (PVC pipe, painter's pole, pool que, telescoping
mast, etc?) Telescoping Mast

 

My reason for asking is that there are many ways to build a Moxon and we
want to build what is the best all round fit.  Please reply directly to me
