Does anyone know if there are plans for a discone scanner antenna on
the web to build?


QRZ has a discone design download

http://www.qrz.com/download/antennas/discone1.zip

Also see:

P.S. When are you going to learn how to use Google ?
I found these two links in 10 seconds using Google
There are more there as well

Type in Discone antenna

Get dozens of places to look.

Also have you bought an antenna book yet -- most of your questions can be
answered by studying a good antenna book.

It is difficult to teach you antennas here. It would take several pages.
