Default Antenna booster?

i understand by adding a class d amp to my 2010 ultra I will lose some radio reception. Would adding a antenna booster help with that or are they junk?

I tried a few options with the RZ4-2000 with no luck at all. Some will say it got a LITTLE better, I saw no change at all.
But like the others said previously, in another thread, its really hit and miss. Others had no loss and I had huge loss of FM. I would not spend a penny on one unless they will give you a money back option if it doesn't help. Just my 02.

If you lost signal because of a class D amp all the antenna will do is amplify the noise accomplishing nothing

It's funny some of the guys at work can't understand why I'm doing this in January in Michigan when I won't be riding for about her three months. But that's the point I'll be ready when the weather breaks the next project is suspension
