Here we go again...
Right, I have the above aerial, but need to know what the exact length of the original whip is please as the one I just bought has gone missing. Also, is it tapered and what's the diameter of the whip at its widest point at the base please?
If I can buy a replacement whip in future, at least I might be able to get it sorted.
Thanks in advance.
Moonraker 4ft mobile aerial whip length required.

£13 for a just over 4ft whip isn't too bad, but if I can get the length and then find a £1 5ft Springer aerial at a carboot sale to rob the whip from, then even better
Thanks for the info though.

The price of whips isn't too bad to be honest, it's just that when you add the £8 postage that most charge, it becomes a different matter.
This is the cheapest one so far (£11.49 posted) for a tapered whip long enough to cut down to size which is palatable:
