What exactly are you looking for? A military antenna or a civilian CB antenna? CB is AM band, so it may not be right for what you want. I generally run a Radio Shack 102" stainless whip on my CBs and converted 10 meter radios. It's the best thing for a CB, but again, may not be the best for FM, if that is what you are wanting.

Holy ****! $650 list is ridiculous and I don't think I would pay $125 either. Looks an awful lot like the $25 Radio Shack whip with a $10 spring and a military base, lol.
