Living in Cinci you shouldn't see a difference at all. To be honest I haven't noticed a difference in my stubby. I rarely listen to the radio though as I keep a album full of mp3 format cd's sitting next to me.

Ordered my carbon fiber Epay tenny today.
If it gets good reception then great, if not then that's alright because I compiled a 40 CD classic rock set that's just about all I listen to.
Add the 80 disc folder of Dick's Picks and XM and I'll probably never even find out if it gets reception at all.

I'm not a big fan of airwaves that are supposed to be public domain and are actually nothing but a big commercial with the occasional musical interlude interspersed with egomaniacal DJs.
Don't even get me started on corporate TV...

What is wrong with some of these eBay sellers? Shipping rates of some of these guys to Canada really piss me off. I do enough buying and selling to know what is a reasonable shipping price and what is unreal. $10.95 shipping for something that will cost less then $5 to ship for this antenae. Just loses them sales in the long run.

As far as reception, I have no problems her in Green Bay. It works like a charm.

And the seller has a silver one here.

No I am not, but I wish I new where to get them wholesale to sell them to you guys. I should look into that. I did just write him a letter through ebay, thanking him and linking him to this website. Maybe he will join as a vendor.

I received a message back thanking me for the link and he said he was working on a new design. He didn't say anything about being a vendor so I asked him. He could possibly cut ebay and their fees (final value and listing) and make a little more money.
