[SixClub] maxon antennas

[Bob Austin]

KU4JZ runs a moxon on six and beats my pants off with the F/B ratio.  I have 
a 4 el. hygain with about 8dB front, but only 17dB rear.  I gave him the 
plumbing parts to build it( 1/2" copper pipe)!!  It took him about a hour to 
build using Cebik's formula and tuning with a 259 analyzer.  He hangs it in 
an oak tree at about 45 ft.  LOL  Bob/KG4YOU
