I have a 2014 JK with a small 13" antenna. Unfortunately, I can't seem to pick up FM channels very well. While I am on the fringe of the signal limits, other cars I own don't have any problem picking up channels. I verified that all connections behind the radio are tight and secure, so I can only assume I need a better antenna. I've been researching antenna replacement options, but so many of the sites that rate these things are just glorified ads, and not real "product rating" sites, so I need a little help from the group here. I found what I thought was a really good well-rated 13" antenna replacement, and ordered it from Amazon, but saw little improvement (I'm returning it).
Sooooo... who has recommendations for antennas that actually pick up channels better than the short 13"er. Do I go with a longer antenna? And if so, how long? What models? Etc. And, if I choose one of these, are they carwash safe?
I'm sure there are more questions I could come up with, but this is just for starts.
