Carlos,
This is the antenna I homebrewed. Works like charm. Cost me $20.00 in parts
($7.00 of that was shipping for the Capacitors from Mouser).

Hello Carlos,
You can try to search for a eggbeater antenna like this one

3/4 wave vertical. Has almost 7 dBi gain above 30 deg.
For 70cm downlinks, this means a 19.5 vertical over a ground plane. Also
is a perfect 1/4wave on 2 meters.
It's the yellow curve on the plot about 80% down this page:
OK,
I guess I should read the whole thing. Missed the word OMNI. Still it's a
good antenna and a quick homebrew project. Maybe something your new Sat Group
could do with students?

although it *is* direction, I agree, it's an effective antenna. I've made one
myself and it's working great! Kent's design is simple and from readily
available and inexpensive material.

Yanko,
I appreciate you plugging the venerable (aka old) Egg2 design, and while I
still consider it a really good LEO omni antenna, it is with limitations. With
today's crop of LEO satellites, none are as strong as the ones available when I
first designed and built that model--specifically
Let's not forget the Moxon turnstilean excellent performer(sorry,
Jerry, they replaced my 'eggbeaters' !!)
