Default Antenna ?

I see several people have the S2k antenna and was wondering if their were any other good ones. Also, do the antennas mess with the radio reception? Thanks!

i have had both mangowalk and s2k antennas.... the mangowalk antenna had horrible radio perception and the s2k has good reception.. i would have definetly gone with the s2k from the start if i had to do it over

S2K here. Reception actually got better! Plus, it makes the tC look sleek instead of a big ol' horse whip sticking out of it.

If you're like me, meaning I listen to my iPod and rarely the radio, I wanted the shortest thing next to totally shaving off the antenna... so the MangoWalk 2.5" was perfect.

Here is 1 site:
http://www.handa-accessories.com/

I'm also interesting in getting a new Antenna for my brand new tC. Debating between S2K antenna and RX330. Any one can make a comparison of those 2 ? Thanks a lot

Thanks for the site, I've been waiting for good deals on ebay but no luck, so I just ordered the s2k antenna from there.
