Post picture of your aerials !

Post by Spiff »

Im looking for pictures of aerials, i have a dab+ player in my car, and the signal is not very good in the car with front window antenna, so i would like to see how you have mounted your aerial before i decide to get one for my self, considering shark fin or bee sting aerial, but any type is interesting ;)

Reception is awesome - not dropped out at all.
I removed the glass mount and smashed it with a hammer

I had two Kinetic 6003 aerials replaced under warranty. The last time I upgraded to a JVC Hal 2 aerial, and so glad I did. Reception is miles better.

Is it just an amplified am/fm aerial required or do you need to consider one with gps for nav etc?

This is a Celsus combo roof mount AM/FM/DAB+/GPS... had it installed after new head unit and DAB reception is an improvement over the factory aerial.

Can I pick your brains please. Image

So I guess on this antenna you either use normal aerial connection or Dab connection to suit your radio? I guess my screen has been changed at some point so radio reception is very poor.

Where did you pick a live up from? Behind the radio or back end?

Thanks

I take it you guys have just dropped the headlining slightly and ran the cables along?
