I have not tested the reception yet but I will let you know. I don't use the radio anyways so it shouldn't be an issue for me.

Drove it to work because it will be a rare sunny and 75 degrees today AND tomorrow in central Indiana. Then we get a weekend of rain and storms, followed by more snow and cold early next week. Have to grab these days when we can.

I had that same antenna. It looses it's black color in the sun pretty quickly and will turn a sorta red. I ended up putting the OEM one back on there - which I think looks better too.

Double this for Vermont today. This is the one day. After that - everything from snow, sleet, rain and wintery mix as far as the eye can see.

Got a bit carried away driving it on the highway.
It was the first time this spring.

Did a lot this month. Frank from Slidewayz Motorsports in Palisades, NJ installed 1000cc injectors, Haltech computer and tuned it with the Tanabe Medallion exhaust, test pipe, and Fipk intake that was previously installed. Then he dynoed it at 220 to the wheels. Much better low and mid-range, Vtec kicks in at 5000 rpm, really opened up the engine and increased the fun factor.
Today and yesterday put about 4 hours waxing and compounding using Glare compound, micro finish, spider web remover, and polish. No more surface lines and really brings out the metallic part of the paint.
