Does anyone on the list have experience with the MFJ moxon antennas?  They
now have models for 6m, 10m, and 15m.  The advertised gain is 3.3dbi, which
seems really low for a 2 element antenna.  That is only .5 db over a
dipole.  The 15m monoband version would be nice, but if that gain is
correct, it hardly seems worth it.  I know it has a F/B ratio the dipole
wouldn't, but my problem is more about getting the station to hear me,
since I run 100 watts, and need all the gain I can get.
