Jeff,
For most of my Ham Radio Micro Beacon Projects and this Micro FM
Transmitter, I use a round 2.2p capacitor component as simple a stub
antenna, actually anything would work. It does provide a bit of a load and
helps stabilize the oscillator and avoid hand capacitance. But it is a neat
component and looks good for the antenna.
Regards,
Eldon Brown
