Here's an ultra-simple ground plane antenna that will work from the CB frequencies (11m) and 10m thorugh 2m and 70 cm.

Gil of "RadioPreppers.com" takes you step by step through the design, construction, and use of this basic antenna. 

Here are some of Gil's comments:

"Building and testing a quarter-wave ground plane jungle antenna. This is a simple antenna for CB, 10m and up. It is used hanging from a tree using three spreaders made of locally sourced material. It doesn't get much simpler than that! M0UKD Calculator: https://m0ukd.com/calculators/quarter...
