Here's another way to do it.

All you need is some wire, some coax, that PL259 adapter, and a clamp-on 
ferrite core. Adjust the length of wire and the distance between the 
wire and the ferrite choke so that each are a quarter-wave. This antenna 
can be rigged horizontally, vertically, or sloping, depending on the 
available skyhooks.
