Moxon antenna for the 20-meter band.The antenna is the faint rectangle of wires held in tension by the bent X-shaped support frame. Moxon antenna for the 2-meter band. The Moxon antenna or Moxon rectangle is a simple and mechanically rugged two-element parasitic array, single-frequency antenna. [1]
the upper half of a vertical full-wavelength loop antenna mounted on the ground (not to be confused with the visually similar but electrically different half-square antenna described below, under array antennas, [t] nor to be confused with the halo antenna, described next). The full loop is cut at two opposite points along its perimeter, and ...
The HB9XBG antenna is a vertical dipole antenna for short wave radio amateurs. It was developed by the Swiss radio amateur Walter Kägi, whose call sign HB9XBG is also the designation of the antenna. [1] During the test phase in 2020, HB9XBG built two vertical dipoles – one for the 20-metre amateur radio band and another for the 40-metre band.
A two-element quad antenna used by an amateur radio station A 4-element amateur radio quad antenna. The two men working on it show the scale. The wire loops are almost invisible, suspended on the ends of the crossed supports. A quad antenna is a type of directional wire radio antenna used on the HF and VHF bands.
Over the last few years, FM DXing using computers became more popular then ever, people have started using different software for DXing based on their devices, as it provides more comfort and receivers can also be tuned remotely. This allows DXers to place their antennas in remote places without the need of being at the mentioned place while DXing.
A more recent phenomenon for indoor antennas are flat antennas, which are lightweight, thin, and usually square-shaped with the claim of having more omnidirectional reception. They are also marketed as being more in line with modern minimalistic home designs. [14] Flat antennas may have a stand or could be hung on a wall or a window. [15]
A fractal antenna is an antenna that uses a fractal, self-similar design to maximize the effective length, or increase the perimeter (on inside sections or the outer structure), of material that can receive or transmit electromagnetic radiation within a given total surface area or volume.
The coaxial collinear (COCO) antenna uses transposed coaxial sections to produce in-phase half-wavelength radiators. [5] A Franklin array uses short U-shaped half-wavelength sections whose radiation cancels in the far-field to bring each half-wavelength dipole section into equal phase. Another type is the omnidirectional microstrip antenna (OMA ...
