Antenna

I bought one.

LOVED the way it looked (as compared to the OEM whip).

HATED what it did to my radio reception.

Just so you know.
Your mileage (and reception) may vary.

I think this depends upon the frequency you listen too. It does not affect FM which is the most common to use in the UK. There is a thread on the board somewhere detailing which antenna do what.

i got my 3" stubby antenna on Ebay from a seller called shortantenna , it's made of aluminum.

:thumbsup:

price is $ 9.95
 
Biggest issue with an alloy antenna IMHO is that it's a very rigid object if you catch yourslf on it and any idiot walking by has the perfect lever to crease the top of the wing. I much prefer flexy rubber
 
I've got a mangowalk and it does effect FM reception, but looks good :)

Radio 1 and all the local channels are effected, alright in good signal areas but on my commute to work it's a bit of a nightmare!

Thank god for CD's

-1 star for not calling it a stubby and thus denying us of the pleasure of playing with that open can o worms.


So it is written, let it be done.
