I crimped some automotive lugs on the end and screwed it across the beams in the attic.
Here's a pic, (It's with a BNC to F adapter & the antenna is coiled so it would fit in the frame of the picture.)

What were the lengths that you used for the two legs and what would you recommend for different frequencies. Looks like a great idea.
