I am looking for plans to build some 70cm antennas for my handheld
radios. Cannot find much on the net. Has anybody on this forum built
their own, if so, how did they perform?
Any suggestions or pointers would be appreciated.

One super simple antenna can be built using a BC to SO-239
adapter. Stick a 1/4 wave length of thick wire or rod that will fit
snug into the SO 239 end hole of the adapter. Screw onto radio.
Presto! Instant antenna. You can change bands too if you change
the rod or wire to another one of different length.
