Thanks to Michael Martens (KB9VBR) for this simple, inexpensive, and totally elegant 2 Meter Ground Plane Antenna.  This antenna is suitable for both home and portable use.

Here are some general comments from Michael about this antenna:

"Are you looking for a fun and easy antenna project? The 1/4 ground plane might be just the ticket. This particular ground plane is constructed out of an SO-239 chassis connector, so the radiator is attached to the center conductor of the connector and the radials each come off the base.
