Bill,
You might also want to look at another small wire beam called the
Hexbeam. It has a smaller turning radius than the Moxon, and can be
built as a 5 band (20m thru 10m) version, or even a 6 band (20m thru 10m
+ 6m) version.
Lots of info on my website: http://www.karinya.net/g3txq/hexbeam/
Detailed constructional info on Leo's website:
http://www.leoshoemaker.com/hexbeambyk4kio/general.html
And a very active and supportive user group at:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hex-beam/
Good luck,
Steve G3TXQ
