This is a press release that was sent to me from MFJ concerning their new 6m and 10m Moxon antennas:
New! MFJ 6 and 10 Meter Moxon Antennas!
MFJ-1890, 10-Meter Moxon, $84.95
MFJ-1896, 6-Meter Moxon, $69.95
The[FONT="] Moxon antenna (invented by Les Moxon -- SK 2004, G6XN) is similar to a 2-element yagi, although elements are folded and spaced to eliminate the need for impedance matching. [/FONT]
A [FONT="] carefully optimized and constructed Moxon antenna exceeds gain and bandwidth of sloppily designed/constructed yagi antennas. A Moxon is also smaller than typical yagis and much smaller than typical j-pole antennas.[/FONT]
Henceforth [FONT="], they are great for limited spaces and even antenna restricted neighborhoods. They are winter-storm tough but extremely light-weight (MFJ-1890 weighs 8 lbs. and MFJ-1896 weighs under 5 lbs.). They are easy-to-put up so you can take them on outdoor adventures! Each antenna feed point is an SO-239 pigtail. [/FONT]
MFJ’s [FONT="] 6-Meter version features a low SWR and broad cardioid pattern with a 5.5 dBi forward gain, high front-to-back ratio. Element span is a compact 7 feet on a 34-inch boom with a turning radius of under four feet. This is your best choice for the “magic band” as the sun spot count rises and legendary band openings return. Also, it is easy to pack-up-and-go on those exciting mountain-topping and rover adventures![/FONT]
MFJ’s [FONT="] 10-Meter version boasts a 3.3 dBi forward gain and 30 dB of interference killing front-to-back rejection. Spans a mere 12 feet on a lightweight 50-inch boom. Easily mounts anywhere using lightweight TV hardware. [/FONT]
MFJ-1890 and MFJ-1896 areprotected by MFJ’s famous NoMatterWhatTM one year limited warranty. MFJ will repair or replace (at our option) your MFJ antennas no matter what for one complete year.
