As someone else noted, G0KSC has a whole bunch of interesting designs on his web site but I especially like the basic OWA designs for their wide bandwidth and 50 ohm feedpoint with NO matching "devices".  I actually built this one

by "repurposing" the parts of my old VHF TV antenna and it works like a charm!  You can see a few details of it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/k6rm/ under the "DTV Special" heading as well as the CM86 and Kings County Expedition headings.
