I really like the look of the CravenSpeed antenna, but listen to my radio too much to lose the reception. I went with this and absolutely love it. Get the same if not better reception and at only 8 incehs, it's much shorter than stock.

I don't remember ever hearing about Blake having reception issues. Is the Cravenspeed unit known for that?

 

I read a lot of reviews of the CravenSpeed having bad reception in rural areas. Since I spend most of my time in small town Iowa, I wasnt willing to risk it.

 

I have on and radio sucks now. But I run satellite most of the time so it's of minimal impact.

 

Sirius and iPod FTW

I haven't listened to terrestrial radio in years. Mine was purely for aesthetics. The little I did listen to it, it seems to catch fine, but, that was not out in the sticks.
