If you are in the US go to your local Radio Shack. Buy one (sku 420-2385).
Should cost less than $5.00, unless you need to attach to 75 ohm connector,
then you will have to add the cost of impedance matching transformer,
another $3.00 to $5.00.

If do not live in the US, or really, just really have to roll your own the
formula is 468/f where f is the frequency in mhz. That comes out to about
4' 9'' long at 98 mhz which is the middle of the band. Solder both ends of
the twin lead together, cut one conductor in the center and open it up to
about the width of the twin lead. Attach a length of twin lead to this
gap.

In either case set the antenna up as an "inverted v", including 90 to 140
degrees between the legs.
