Another antenna question

06 4306 DSDP. Not sure what this antenna is attached to. I have tried radio, etc and none are all that fantastic so... In looking at other posts searching for the info I haven't found this one. I am guessing it is either radio or CB but not sure. I guess I could just drive down to Radio Shack but would rather have an idea of what I am looking for first. Any thoughts as to what kind of antenna this was? Thank you!

I just replaced a radio ant from RS and the mounting you have in your hand does not have the grove needed for radio mount.
I would say that's a CB mount and it may have been a spring wipe ant like on my coach.
The radio ant are tilted back when mounted CB's are straight up rod with a ball on top and flex off the spring that's part of ant.

CB ant... That is the base for the spring mount. You would have to replace that part with a new spring mount and, of course, an antenna. Don't bother with Radio Shack, they won't be much help. Try a shop that specializes in CB or Ham radio, or find a Ham radio operator who would be the best help.
