Alternately, I see that there are several simple DIY plans around that I could build. Do they really work as well as mass produced antennas?

Yes, they really work, but some of the plans are better than others. You have to decide how valuable your DIY time VS just buying an antenna.
These plans are reliable:

If you do decide to build, be careful of the ends of the sharp whisker wires for the bowties.
