Radio antenna suggestions

I have a ~$25 short antenna that works just fine.

They also sell OEM type replacements.

I like that. If you don't mind, could you post a picture of it installed?

I probably could have done a better job on installation to make it perfectly verticle but ...

it works surprisingly well and I believe they offer a money back guarantee

That's great to hear. I don't listen to the radio hardly at all these days (Bluetooth) but I would still like it to mostly work while not having an antenna that gets hit by shit. Sounds like this will fit the bill nicely

My short rubber antenna picks up the local radio station from over 30 miles away. $10 well spent IMO.View attachment 181334

There are digital radio apps that you can download to listen to FM from your cellphone. Plus, you get digital stations too. Digital is generally much better quality than analog signals. I have my stock analog antenna and I see no reason to change it, because AM/FM is basically obsolete.

I am in northern Virginia about 45 minutes outside of DC and my cellular coverage with Verizon sucks. The constant buffering and connection issues make phone streaming nearly impossible so FM/AM is still the best option.

Have you even tried to see if your local radio stations will work digitally? A digital signal is normally better than an analog signal.
