Sure. There are plenty of plans out there or LF, mostly loops, diamonds,
squares and E-probes. Try google. If that doesn't work, I'll chase down
the set of links I have.
I built a loop on a pair of crossed dowels that worked fine with my SRS
FS700 with a balun. There's a loop calculator out there on the web that
will help you get in the right neighborhood in terms of diameter and number
of windings.
I eventually bought an LF Engineering H-900 [1]. The H-900 is really nice,
although I would prefer it had been connectorized at the antenna end.
