Hello , am looking for advise on a VHF Omni directional antenna for a
small fixed base operation , looked at a commercial ant. and the price is
a little high for a 1/4 wave vertical , am sure the quality is there but
am wondering if I could modify a Ringo or something else to work just as
good , would have it resonate on 123.000 as this is our Unicom freq., a
little gain would be OK .
Thanks

Phil,
Why don't you build a J-Bar?

Or even simpler, sting the following antenna in side a vertical piece of PVC
pipe.
