I am trying to find an ACCURATE antenna with a built in HPF to block below 100 MHz. I am using it to test for Partial Discharge in stators. Does anybody have any suggestions?

What frequency range do you want the antenna to cover?

We are looking to cover 0 to roughly 150Mhz.. The signals we are looking to pick up range from 40Mhz to just under 100Mhz and we want those to be blocked by the HPF. The noise must be eliminated to show the true signal which starts at 100Mhz.

If you're using an EMC Receiver or a Spectrum Analyzer it will filter out the unwanted frequencies. But if you additional filtering - a preselector - a suitable filter can be purchased or built. PAR Electronics can build you a filter.

Depending on how much attenuation you need a simple dipole antenna alone may work. A 125 MHz dipole is down 13 dB at 100 MHz with attenuation increasing below 100 MHz.
