[Rick Tejera]

Like Ed said, google Cheap Leo antenna. 
I made mine in an afternoon for less than $20.00. Worked great, I earned VUCC Satellite with it.

Go to wa5vjb.com. Look for downloads then cheap yagis. Kent's designs are easy to build and work just fine. He even has a duplexer to use a single dual band ht on satellites.
