Antenna source?

[Tinman]

Does anyone have a source for antennas with a good selection of sizes?
I'm having a problem finding replacements for my current restoration.
I have one original antenna but would like to install two new ones (or nicely conditioned used ones).
Any help would be appreciated.

I did check out their site but it's hard to tell what the different models look like since the pics are difficult to see.
The one model that reads 10" collapsed length sounds about right but I found the same model on "the bay" but the packaging it's in has 8" collapsed length.
I'll have to see if I can get answers on that.
Thanks.
Any others?

Hi Tinman, I just received 2 boxes with Telescope antenna's. There's just a quite range in 1 box, so the one you search might be there?
The mark is NEDIS, I ordered at MEGEKKO.

I found Nedis has a website.
I'll check it out.
Thanks.

One place that has a nice selection is CQ Radio Supply, I believe they only sell on the bay.
I had to replace 4 antennas on two of my M90s.
The ones I bought were about a 1/2" longer than the originals but they're good quality and work really well.

Yep, it's usually the first or second place I check for just about everything.
Thanks.

Well, I bought 2 from Russell Ind. after emailing a sales rep.
I asked him the measurements on one of their antenna models and he told me it has a collapsed length of 9.8" (tip to tip).
Mine is 9-7/8" which sounds perfect so I called him up and ordered two.
I received them and they were 9-3/8", a pretty big difference.
An eighth of an inch off I can see but a half, c'mon.
I ended up using two I previously bought from the seller I mentioned above, CQ radio supply, that are about 10-3/8".
They're a little long but they collapse and clip in easier than the shorter ones.
