Sweet. I was thinking about getting one but wanted to know about the reception. I had a shorty one from ebay and had to go back to my stock because some of the FM stations wouldn't come in.

I just ordered mine, and oh wow... they BLOW UP YOUR E-MAIL... I think I recieved 6 e-mails from them in about 2 minutes after I ordered my stubby. After the antenna shows up, I'm adding them to my spam list.

Alright, so the stubby arrived super quick! Within 3 days! Easy install, and it looks amazing compared to the long wire antenna from the factory. I have no loss of xm or local radio but I live in a rather populated area, so I really wouldn't notice a huge difference. I thought this was going to be just sort of cheap plastic coated antenna, but it actually has some durability to it and was very suprised. I like it!

Got mine last week. My luck was not as good as y'all's. Looks great but I lost all but one station, and it barely comes in. I've been to busy to send it back but I will be on it this weekend.

I've lost every station and I live in a city. Also, I am .5 miles from where 101ESPN broadcasts, cannot pick up station at all. This thing is completely useless.

I'm with the guys who say the reception sucks. I live 15 miles from NYC and can not get one channel to come in clear...

I bought a stubby and had the same reception issues. Talked to Thom and he's sending me a 12" antenna to try. Not the stubby I wanted but still a foot shorter then stock and Thom has been quick to answer and very helpful thus far

I got one of these a few weeks ago and my reception is horrible now. It doesn’t bother me because I don’t listen to radio stations anyway. I fell in love with Apple Music and got away from SiriusXM
