Anyone come up with an easy way to accomplish this? I have built a small sat antenna but cannot figure out an easy way to secure it to my camera tripod, which has the standard screw on top of the mount that goes into a hole on the camera.

I use Arrow II Yagis, and they have a hole under the hand grip that's sized and tapped for that screw. You should be able to do the same. Keep in mind your antenna's CG to improve stability when mounted.
