  • Moxon antenna calculator

    Moxon antenna calculator: dimensions, plans, and tuning guide. Use this Moxon antenna calculator to generate the A–E dimensions for a classic 2-element Moxon rectangle from your design frequency and conductor diameter. Choose common amateur-radio bands or enter a custom frequency, then use the plans, construction notes, tuning steps, gain and radiation-pattern guidance below to turn the calculated geometry into a practical antenna.
