I'll have to look for that info, but wanted to ask what birds you're
wanting to hit?
Most FM birds require VHF and UHF antennas, as you normally transmit on
one, and listen on the other.
Here is an easy design to do:

I also did a big write-up on our club website with info as well. In case it
can help:

Hope that helps!
