Stuff a rollup J-pole in a PVC pipe.

Google Jpole, you will find some pretty cool stuff.

Also if you are just trying to extend the range on your HT, just get yourself a magmount antenna, and put it on the cookie sheet. Find a nice high place to put it. I ran one of these on the roof of my back deck for several months with good results.
