build your own tv antenna?

I don't know if all of you remember but I bought an amplified TV antenna for my last install and it was subsequently stolen. Anyways now I'm wondering if I can build my own. The antenna was like the one here:



What it looked like to me was simply a thin (thicker than tin foil) piece of aluminum sandwiched between two pieces of posterboard. With one of those 2 wire to coax adapters.

I was really pleased with it's performance but a lot of that was probably attributed to the facr that it also had like a 25 dBi amplifier attached to it.

Anyways... does anyone have any knowledge on the subject? Maybe even where to get some ultra thin aluminum. Anything?
