Shorty Antenna ?!?!
Which do you all have and how is reception? I had the perrin 4 inch on my evo IX and reception was terrible. How does yours work with the navi and serius?

I have heard nothing but great things about the Perrin shorty on the X. I don't have one yet, but plan to order one with my next Perrin order.

I believe the Navi and Sirius use a separate antenna, so changing the long one wont mess up reception on those. It will only affect AM/FM.

I run the Perrin Short one works and looks great!
No problems with the navi or Sirius. (Don't use am/fm so can't say how it is with those bands)
