Yeah sure, what kind are you looking for?

Any specifics, or just a cheap antenna that works good  

BTW, I did that one hehe

ouch, that gives no details...

Maybe a Jpole or a discone. A jpole is a simple antenna, works on pipes, and its about 5-7 feet tall. A discone is I guess discone in shape, its smaller in size usually, it costs more though. If you need links, tell me your price range...

Some are not tuned for airband, so you have to look for one that says in its description something like 118.0 to 135.0 (airband freqs) I doubt the cheap ones are that great
