Which antenna?
Just ordered a retro kit from bike tronics and need to know what antenna works best. I have a 2006 Electra Glide standard. the kit comes with a hidden antenna but bike tronics suggested I put on an exterior antenna as the hidden one they say is only good in town. Any suggestions?

RE: Which antenna?
I have a Dakota Digital powered antenna under the fairing on mine, and some guys here are using a TuneTrapper non-powered antenna under the fairing.
I have installed and tried both of the above, and found that either work well, but niether is quite as good as the factory whip. Only problem is, the factory whip takes away from the overall look of the bike, and especially if you have a quick detach tour pack and take it off.
Regards,
Bill

This is what I'm using in the fairing of my '06 Ultra. Not as good as the whip but it does the job.
