Anyone know where I can get an antenna for my 86VR mine broke as I was driving down the freeway.

If you want to replace the OEM they appear on Ebay from time to time. Otherwise I sure other board members will chime in with a few suggestions on aftermarkets....

Dave,

Might be just as easy to get a Firestik and change it over, then you never have to worry about it again. It's adjustable also for the tuning of the CB

Will it still work for radio??????????

I too am interested. what does the firestick look like ? ist it fiberglass or Metal ? and would you connect it in with the existing setup (eg. connect to the end of the existing cable) or run it seperatly?

A brother VR member, DavePa has one on Ebay as we speak. Here is the link:

The last time I looked the bid was $10.00 It is a direct replacement for your antenna. It also comes with the cable. It might not be as slick as the "firestick" but it's a lot cheaper.

Just my 2 cents.

Ride Safe,
