Probably it's what is called a Silver Rod in the EU.Last time I saw them for sale in the States was about 10 years ago at a hamfest.A guy was selling both the 1/2λ and 5/8λ for $20.They were labeled Halcon.

This antenna appears to be isolated from any earth ground, scary.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
