I have a short antenna. It's been confirmed by a few people here that many of them over time cause problems. Mine shorts out sometimes and starts picking up interference from the hydro-electric braking system makines static and buzzing noises on AM channels. The dealers have fixed it by re-installing a stock antenna. Mine seems to do it when you watch it, but after it dries it's ok. Water must be getting into something or other. HummerMike said he has seen a few at his dealer that have been replaced because of the same issue. Make sure you get a high-quality one. Mine is only 10" tall and the reception is just as good, if not better, then the stock one, although it has that little bug. 90% of the time it works great.

I have the AMI Stubbie with flames. It works really good. The first one that I had I sent back for two reasons...One, the flames didn't hardly show up and second it didn't seem to work. The second may have been my fault though. This new antenna I recieved I first unscrewed the adaptor from the antenna and screwed it into the H3 antenna reciever first, then I screwed the Stubbie antenna to it. I think on the first one I didn't have the adaptor screwed into the H3 reciever far enough so it wasn't getting good contact. This new one looks and works great. I bought it on Ebay.

I have kept my stock antenna for one reason- If it clears in the parking garage, I know I'm safe -- it's kinda like a curb-feeler for my roof.
