Mobile End Fired Phased Array Antenna

Playing with the end fire array and forced current feed method of phasing is fun.
The moxon will have better results most likely

I've made a Moxon for uhf. the concept is a folded dipole with a folded reflector. Can't think of how you would use that vertically as a mobile antenna. No doubt it was a heck of alot easier to tune then a standard dipole without a balun.
BTW tons of Moxon calculators on the internet.

No moxon on a mobile. I have a stealth location i just want to mess around with both styles of antenns on a metal roof.

In that case, MMM has a DDRR antenna on his mobile (it looked like a military issued suburban or a one that was painted in camo colors). I remember seeing it on youtube. Food for thought. if I find the video I'll post it on this thread in the future.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
