Stereo Aerial.

[KiwiBacon]

Here's a rather mundane topic.
What's a good choice for a stereo aerial?

It's got to be tough and flexible enough to withstand branch hits, but still be able to get decent FM reception. It's also got to be rust proof.
The current one on my rangie has done okay, it's about 10 years old and has a large spring above the mounting foot to let it fold back. But it's rusted, broken and almost due for replacement.

those flexy rubber ones are good, my one has survived where 2 PRS aierals haven't (and you know how many trees pull out in front of me by accident )

How's the reception?
Where I live it's soo bad that I listen to internet radio.

Sounds like a plan.
I thought the one I had was stainless, until I moved to the west coast.

haha, true, it might not be stainless, but here in nelson things dont rust quick enough to find out.

I got a 4-5 ft fibreglass flex aerial with a spring base from supercheap, cost about $50 I think.

Its great, awesome reception and the combination of flex and the spring is good when ya in the dense bush
