Best VHF antenna I've ever bought

Works amazing. Used on my boat on my T-TOP. Amazing reception. Ignore negative reviews. Good product. The rubber gasket on the underside also fits snugly into the diamond-shaped footplate, which has a very uneven shape. Would definitely buy again.

Pros
  • So far so good
Cons
  • Updates

Fin installed with excellent reception

Added this antenna to my stereo on our Yamaha side-by-side. FM reception is 90% better than stock antenna. The low profile makes it an ideal choice for a machine working in mountains with low branches. The look of this antenna is stylish by today's standards in my opinion.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Long wait

Shark fin size suitable for accessories and supplies

Product size required. Overall length 5.770 inches / 146.5 mm. Width is the flat side or back of the shark fin 3.032" / 77mm. Shark fin height only (bolt not measured) 2.375" / 60.30mm. A 9/16 hole must be drilled for attachment. The distance from the center line (flat side of the shark fin) to the center of the stud is 2.244"/57mm. after routing the wires from the back to the front of the car. this works pretty well. I had to add a ground wire from the base to get a good ground. Would this…

Pros
  • 16.5ft cord
Cons
  • Garden tools

Works great, finally satisfied.

After drilling a hole in the roof about 2 years ago, I am finally happy with the radio reception. This is about the fourth roof mount I've had and it's a head taller than others I've had. Not only has my FM reception improved, but I was surprised that I can now pick up AM stations (not that I hear AM). There are no instructions for this set, but I think almost anyone can figure it out. Very happy with this purchase!

Pros
  • Antennas
Cons
  • Very expensive

Couldn't be happier!

I took a chance after reading the reviews. With a volvo xc90 that has the antenna built into the fiber I was unable to connect my aftermarket radio to the OEM. I tried the stick on the windshield and couldn't be less impressed. So I did what every normal person does, drilled a hole in my roof and hooked up this kid. The stations are now very clear and am works too. Highly recommended, just make sure you have a good ground connection.

Pros
  • Radio antennas
Cons
  • Not sure

I used this with a new aftermarket radio on my 2006 Toyota Sienna. The factory used reinforced rear window antennas, one side for AM and the other side for FM, and two separate antenna connections to the factory radio. The windowed AM antenna used the factory radio circuitry and did not work with the new radio. My goal was to use the shark fin antenna to restore my AM reception. With a little caution, I made a test setup on a grounded luggage rail. I was impressed with the FM reception. I…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks
