Home made atenna

[dhahn87]

can anyone tell me how to make a good home made scanner antenna. to mount outside of my house or any good links.
i've heard of using a j-pole atenna but i can't find any plans that i can understand.
i don't have that much experience in antennas so please make the directions very easy to understand.
thanks alot and git-r-done

Yep - the homebrew section of:

has the original schematic for the antenna, and plenty more where that came from
