I have one for 2 meters, and one for 6 which I used when I ran a VX5R.

Somewhere in your google search, you will find the J-pole calculator.

It's pretty visual, but if someone can help you with a bit of
screen-reading, you can plot the dementions for any band you wish.

There is one company which actually sells twin-lead j-poles for each band
from 10 through 40 meters, including cb. I have talked with one guy who used
one on 10 meters, and it worked great.

We are about to install a 6 meter repeater here, and I am considering one
made of tubing for my 6 meter fm antenna.
