Review on πŸ”₯ Firestik AMFM4-B: 4 ft. AM-FM Receive Antenna - Black | Exceptional Performance and Style by Sohini Ledesma

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not worth it!: Audio and video accessories

I've cleared so many hurdles to make it work. It took me months to get it fitted to my truck. Seller support wasn't very good at helping me troubleshoot, so I asked other companies for help to help me figure it out. The base is the same as the CB antenna so you will need either an antenna thread adapter or a special coaxial cable with PL 259 on one end and the other end that plugs into your stereo. I really wanted this to improve reception in my city where AM/FM reception is patchy and in the woods. Finally I prepped it with special parts and added a spring at the bottom just like my 4ft Firestik CB antenna so it can move when it bumps into things. It worked for me the first weekend, I went on a scenic drive, it clipped a branch and broke at the base. All of this works for a large antenna that is too fragile to touch. It's really rigid and not flexible like the Firestik CB antenna. Don't waste money. It is not worth.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
