It is the shorter antenna used on the B&W sets, not the long ones used on most of the color TVs GE made.
I'll check with my Dad - those antennas were quite common on many brands - having a GE dealer just up the street helped, because we could buy the GE replacement far cheaper than the Russell Industries one. If he's got it, it's yours for shipping, albeit it may be a used antenna. Dad's never charged me anything for vintage parts for members of AK..

Cheers
