134-150ish antenna for Harris 5100?

[RickTheGeek]

Hi! I have a 5100 radio being used on Amateur radio with what I believe is a 134-150 MHz antenna (it appears to cover, or at least work "good enough" for amateur 2 meter band) that needs to be replaced due to breakage, but I am unable to locate an antenna for that band. (the tip of the current antenna has two red stripes, if that helps)

Does anyone have a source for an antenna for the 5100 that would cover the 2 meter band, or should I just go with a harris - bnc (or SMA) adaptor and pick up an antenna at HRO?

Thanks!
Rick, N1ZXZ

Check Smiley Antenna. They've got a number of antennas that would probably work. I'm personally partial to the 5/8-wave slim duck antennas.
