$10.49, but they don't have the arrestor, i guess the $1
"twinlead" arrestor is a thing of the past. check the
discount stores that have do it yourself tv stuff for an
arrestor. ground the base, and hook the antenna to both
terminals.

you can make an arrestor, use an old fashion NON-RESISTOR
spark plug, ground the body and connect the antenna to the
stud. .016 gap works well.
