Had to re-install stock antenna !
Hi
I had bought a blavk antenna from a auto parts store that was 3" shorter than stock one. The reception was not good! The new one was level with the roof. Put old one back on all is ok. I guess the lrngth does matter. I will get one that is the same size as the stock one and let you know what happens.

My stubby worked OK untill I got my new HD Head Unit. I couldn't get any HD signals at all. So I'm back to stock for now. But I have one of these just waiting to install.
