How to make a 20 meter Moxon antenna for home or portable use.

Excellent tutorial from Chuck (KK6USY) of the KK6USY Ham Radio Adventures video channel.  If you want a simple, effective antenna for the Amateur Radio 20 meter band, please consider the popular "Moxon Antenna." Chuck takes you the basic knowledge and construction techniques needed to make this lightweight, portable antenna.

In this video I show how I made a 20 meter Moxon Antenna for portable operation like POTA or SOTA. Yea I know SOTA might be a stretch for most of us! If you make this antenna for home use, I would beef up the base plate and use a heavier gauge wire 18 -12awg. Also look into some heavier duty fiberglass supports for the spreaders.
