Would love to but I'm on an extended trip with only basic tools. I saw a similar design at the FRARS site several months ago, I've searched but I can't find it. It was a coil wrapped around a CD spindle, it was mostly pictures. It was supposed to be an omni. I tried building it but it sucked. I've seen similar antennas described (for other frequencies) and they are horizontally polarized, however this antenna used a CD as a groundplane on the bottom of the CD spindle so it didn't make sense to me.
I'll give it a shot when I get a chance.
