I've got an antenna on my 800MHz radio that's about 7 inches, and it's most certainly Motorola. It has the Motorola logo embossed in it.

The current 800MHz offerings from Motorola are:

"Flexible Whip Antenna"
Flexible whip antennas have a one-piece finish and steel core for optimal radiation characteristics. Provides more comfort when radio is worn on the belt.
P/N 8505241U03 Flexible Whip, 806-869 MHz, 7"

"Dipole Antennas"
Dipole molded antennas are injection moulded in lasting polyurethane. The wide skirt at the bottom of the connector protects against damaging environmental elements. The dipole antenna is ideal when strong and solid clarity is demanded.
P/N NAF4000B Dipole, 806-869 MHz, 8"

"Stubby Antenna"
This quarterwave stubby antenna is ideal when radio is worn on belt because the short antenna is non-obtrusive.
P/N 8505241U06 Stubby, 806-941 MHz, 4"
