Hidden antenna?
Lots of posts on here about this topic. Do a search. I have a Dakota Digital but anything less than a full antenna is not going to perform as well. I lose signal as near as fifteen miles from a metro area so I use the MP3 player 99% of the time.
I wired my antenna center conductor cable to the luggage rack and the ground to the metal plate. I've never been without plenty of stations.
Last week, I did a station comparison side by side with an 09 ultra and I received more stations than he did. I'm a retired electrical engineer and don't understand why unless the ultra radio wasn't performing up to par.

I recently purchased this one...... didn't receive weather-band with my other antenna this one picks up W-B......It seems to be a little better than my old hidden antenna that was powered.....

I bought this cheap ($20) deal at Radio Shack, looks like a 18" long piece of white flexable PVC with just a jack to the antenna connection. Works great, gets reception as good as the stock antenna. Fits inside the fairing with no problems. I've seen them in HD shops also but they want more $$$$. gary
PS-Does not use any power source.
