There was a book published in 1980 called "A Guide to F.C.C. 
Equipment Authorizations" by Willmar K. Roberts.  This book covers 
how to build wide band baluns, half-wave dipoles (also known as the 
Roberts Dipole), Line impedance stabilization networks (LSINs), how 
to set up a site, etc.

The book is old and somewhat out of date, but the construction info is 
still good.  Roberts is the retired Ass't Chief Engineer of the FCC.  
It apears to be self published by him and gives his address as
4637 Van Kleeck Drive
New Smyrna Beach   FL  32069

Hope this helps
