What's your favorite RX antenna?

I'm using a quarter wave lambda antenna on my 900Mhz TX and the junky stock dipole antenna on the RX. I'm looking into different types of antennas for receivers, so I figured I'd ask: What's your favorite type? Looking for good signal strength, directional antennas are okay too. I fly mostly in one area in front of myself.

I believe it is generally accepted that circular polarized (cp) antennas are best for omnidirectional use. I haven't built mine yet, but I'm gathering the parts. I just got the SMA crimp connectors.
If I were to buy a set, they would be the Blue Beam Ultras. Be sure to check whether you need SMA or RP-SMA connectors before ordering.
