You
can mount the "naked" biquad [Fig. 3] or place it
in an enclosure first which will protect it from weather [Fig.
4].

The
actual rigging method is something you'll have to decide based
on the materials you have. I tried mounting the antenna directly
to the arm of the dish [Fig. 3]. This method works well but
all exposed copper pieces will oxidize quickly. In addition,
an exposed antenna can be easily damaged should the dish lose
footing.
