Who has these and where'd you find them and how well do they work?
Im on ebay looking at these cheap 8 dollar ones and wanna get some feedback instead of throwing away cash

thanks guys

 

I cut the factory antenna. Popped the ball off, filed the new end down to a point and re-installed the ball. Got tired of it hitting in the garage. Works fine.

 

Craven Speed .50cal Stubby. $34. Haven't noticed any reception loss.

 

This Exactly!

Had the Craven Speed stubby, It Sucked! Sold here in th e classifieds, lol...

 

I've got the antenna x 14 inch. I Think It Looks Good And I Haven't Really noticed a big loss in reception. However, I don't listen to radio much, so probably not the best judge on that. It seems a little cheaply made but it works for me.

 

Exactly, I cut my stock antenna off at 13" painted the end and it works just fine.

 

How did you pop the ball off?

I went with this one:



Reception is fine for the local stations when I do FM. It's $6, why not try it? If you aren't happy, you're only out $6.

 

I just installed the stubby antenna yesterday. Got it from Amazon. Looks so much better than the Stock antenna that makes the truck look like an R/C car.

No loss in signal. Very happy and worth the $25.
