Default Reasonably-priced capacitors for traps

Anybody know where I can get some halfways reasonably priced capacitors

I don't need much power capability - 100 watts max.

I looked on rfparts.com and WOW, are they proud of them... can't find
a'one that's suitable for under about 15 bucks EACH ...


Why are you making a trap in the first place? Moxon has a dipole
arrangement with a resonator at the center which is multiband and does
better than a std dipole, might be what you are looking for.
