Yep.
The 2.4 ghz antennas are easy and fun to build using a pringles can.
You can also use those containers the premade biscuits come in....but that
is harder since you have to pretty much destroy most of the thing when you
open it.
The reason a pringles can is used is because it offers both a wave guide, as
well as an almost perfect sized ground plain made out of the metal end of
the can.
These are great for WIFI hunting in urban areas too.
