Default Installed a stubby antennae....
Ordered it from CravenSpeed a few days ago. Installed it as soon as it came in. Don't ask me about radio reception as I listen to XM/Sirius or Pandora. Here's some pics.

Although I like the look, I listen to local talk radio shows and would like to be able to get good reception without that whip of an antenna.

Any suggestions for stubbies that still tune in well for local radio stations?

Reception sucks. The HD channels cut in and out frequently and it drives me crazy.
