do you have the stock radio? if not, you probably didnt reconnect the power antenna booster wire.

I get shitty reception too... this small antenna just sucks. In some areas I get great reception but in others it is bad.

Out of curiosity, are you military? I ask cuz your location says clarksville. If it's in TN I used to live there when stationed at Campbell.

I have the Dodge Avenger antenna. It looks a lot better than the stock one and I can get reception all the way through the Ft McHenry tunnel in Baltimore. (no other car/antenna got reception. Also your Z wont look like a big Remote control car.
