Heh, well, for antennas I read recently that they are scalable.  So if 
there is an antenna design for 1GHz, you halve all the dimensions for it to 
work just as well at 2GHz.  Just multiply the dimensions by the frequency 
ratio of the design/desired.

Yeah, most of that amateur stuff is for long distance work which is HF to 
UHF (sub GHz).
