Subject:ironic antenna failure

So I had my vanagon parked next to my parts vanagon.  Then I got a big TV
antenna for the house, that was being discarded at my work.  Not having a
good place to store it, I put it on top of the parts vanagon.  A big windy
storm came through and blew the antenna off of the parts van.  Apparently
it managed to make it to the ground without dong the major paint damage
that I expected.  It did break the antenna off of the van though.  I liked
the irony there.

Anyway, I need a new antenna for the 86.  Always looking for a way to
upgrade when I replace stuff on the van.  Is there a good option to the
original factory antenna that is better?  Can I fit a power antenna easily
in the stock location?

Thanks for any advice.
Edward
