Shorty antennas and reception

[Miamibert]

Let's see them shorty antennas, where you bought it and also comment on reception.

just a fyi, the radio reception is just fine even without an antenna.

That being said, I rarely ever even listen to the radio, so it doesn't matter to me anyway. I don't even have an antenna base on my truck anymore. The antenna wire is zip tied to the inner fender structure.

antenna bases tend to tear off or damage CF/ fiberglass, thus we didn't even mount it.

I have the built right industries. States it has a lifetime warranty on fading and I haven’t noticed any reception loss from the stations that I would listen too

I lose HD radio every so often with the full whip, so I have concerns shorting it.

I put one on for the looks. I only listen to Sirius which works fine, in fact it works way better than my Jeep did. (Not sure where the Sirius antenna is, but it works well)

The Sirus antenna is on the roof from what I understand.

I thought it might be in the shark fin.

Shark fin is the 4G phone antenna

Ronin Factory Stubby. I live in a hilly area. No problem at all with the radio. HD, FM, AM works like the factory.

I have the Stubby from Craven Speed. Works well, but I bought it just for looks and don't listen to regular radio. Depending how good reception is in your area, results can be way different than mine.
