I've made both quad helix and crossed dipole GPS antenna in the past - the details are on the web somewhere if you search - but its hardly worth it now - they are so cheap and available surplus.

Hi All

Does anyone have a good active antenna design for a GPS rx.

Tnx de Mal/G3KEV

You certainly can't get much more LF than that:-)

Joking apart, I've never even considered making one.

You can buy them new online for around £15, standard 5 volt supply via the coax, and I would have thought it could end up costing more than that to make your own in small quantities.
