From time to time (OK, that was a little too lame) TAPR has GPS antennas for 
good prices.

 My magnetic base hockey puck amplified GPS antenna for my Lucent receiver
 died.  I had purchased it at the Dayton Hamvention so I don’t remember the 
 dealer.
 
 I’ve found quite a few sellers on Amazon that are in the USA and their prices 
 are
 all about the same.
 
 Does anyone have a recommendation?
 
 I’d rather spend a few dollars more for a quality unit but I don’t know if 
 they are all
 from the same supplier in china and they only difference is the dealers price.
 
 TIA

I have one of the TAPR antennas:

I'm willing to part with for the price of shipping.

I really like the Antenna Factor GPS-SH: http://tinyurl.com/2fxm6n7

I've bought them from Mouser but it looks like you might be able to
order direct from the manufacturer.

They seem to outperform the China clones by several dB, and have a
relatively narrow (~60MHz) bandpass filter at the antenna that reduces
out-of-band noise.

Don't forget to use a ground plane.
