    Wishful thinking to be done by 8... I'm sunburned and exhausted. I may attempt sleeping in.


    Anyone have reception issues with their stubbies? Mine sucked so I traded for a regular antenna. Maybe mine was a dud. :confused:

    I take that back, I listen to one local station in the am on the way to work. I still get good reception even thought that channel is only operating on about half the power as others.

    I run the 13" Antenna X. It's flexible and haven't had any issues with local stations. When it comes to listening to my favorite Tunes I Bluetooth my I tunes thru the phone, or should I say a small computer you make phone calls on! Haha!image.jpg

    That's the one I have. It is always bent from driving high speeds. My OG antenna was bent too so I got stubby. But I hated the bad reception with stubby so one of the locals traded his non bent OG for stubby. I do a lot of rural driving between major cities so I'd like something that is a little stronger. I mostly do internet radio but I do enjoy some NPR every now and then.

    Stock antenna. Ran the antenna x for a bit and got tired of the lower reception and the rusted hardware.

    Auto zone sell's one that's shorter than stock. I think it's around 15.00. A lot of members run with that. As far as it bending back at high speeds, I think that's cool!:beavisd:
