,

While the total length of the antenna is 18", you will notice that the wire is wrapped around the mast. How long would it be if it wasn't wrapped, I don't know. I do know that it picks up FM better than the stock antenna, at least in Los Angeles.

If you type "18 inch fuba antenna" in ebay the first seller should be "raderra". It was only $10.99 with free shipping. The antenna fits just like OEM.
