Has anyone had any experience with the two element or moxon beam? Looking for small 6m beam,don't have much space.Please post antennas used on 6m.

On advice from a friend,I bought a Cushcraft 3 element beam at a hamfest last Saturday for $100.My friend says he has had no promlem with his.I hope the weather co-operates and I can get it in the air by the contest this weekend.

The little moxons do okay. You'd like a yagi much better. The 3 element ones suggested are not really very big. Have a look at one then decide. For all the bigger that they are, you will probably go with one of those.
