Here's a nicely done video tutorial from M6CTP showing us how to make a dual band half wave flower pot antenna for 2 meters and 70 cm.  The step-by-step procedure is easy to understand and should give you good results when you're finished.  Most of the materials can be found at the nearest hardware or building supply outlet.  You may have to order coaxial cable if no local stores carry this item.

This is post #1060 in a continuing series of "Simple Ham Radio Antennas." Intriguing video from "wow sly" (M6CTP) on how to build a dual band (2m/70cm) antenna from a few simple, locally available materials. Support for the antenna elements come from several pieces of UK electrical conduit, approximately 25mm thick. M6CTP's design is cheap, easy to make, and portable.
