By far the BEST 2 meter loop made hands down. PAR does not make JUNK.

This antenna reminds me of my 2 meter Halo antenna, it also is a Loop that is horizontally polarized.

Yes, it is Halo mutation, different supply (the most popular Halo implementation has gamma)

I have the PAR OA-144 and PAR OA-432 and the bolts are threaded the full length of the bolts.I just mounted them on a mast and I’m working on the coax cables now.

That is very nice design. I saw that it is rated for 250w. Thanks for sharing.

It radiates all around because of the physics that Dale designed into it. That is slightly different than the radiation pattern of a regular dipole. And, it will pick up vertical or horizontal, based on orientation...just not both at the same time very well...

That would give you some gain as one is slightly less efficient than a horizontal dipole but truly omnidirectional.

I have great results from a single 6m omniangle, but the single 2m omniangle doesn't give me great results. I was told by a couple hams to buy another one and stack them for a bit more gain.

What a nice and interesting Video. I was thinking to buy the 18mhz version of this nice antenna. Nice portable and lightweight. And let me tell you I like this oldie radio very much! Having here a 720A similar looking. Thanks again. Mercy 73s

here in california we lisien with a j pol e verticle and at times use same alot of the hams are running 1 kw and 10 el beams i run abt 50 w with my ft 991...a moxon antenna will give you 5 db it cost a connector and some house wireing the swr is 1 2 1 across the band and is easy to tune 2 wires and some pvc pipe would like to see you build one we use 144.200 as a calling frequency i also have a moxon on 70 cm good job on cw kg6mn keep the radio preppers alive and well Mercy........bq

+jerome grzelak I first built a 70cm Moxon, then a 6m, but used too thin tubing, so I will cut it up and make two 2m Moxons out of it and remake the 6m Moxon with thicker tubing...
