Decent, cheap DAB antenna

Have used a few different types previously, but have one now that's really very good. Strong signal all the time.

Used a splitter type one on my old Clio, worked well enough. Tried the same thing on another car and it was woeful

Used a couple of smaller windscreen mounted ones, the black one was useless, the other one worked ok but had compatibility issues with my headunit so ended up being a pain in the arse.

Have used an external one, this is better and mostly good but still struggles for signal in some places. Could be it's a particularly cheap and rubbish one, but I didn't fancy paying over 60 quid for a Connects2 version to find out they're all identical.

Have installed this type in a couple of cars now, it's one straight wire a couple of feet long. I just run it along the top of the windscreen. Signal is excellent.
I paid £13 for it on AliExpress, if the link stops working use Google image search to find another of the same type. Double check the connector on it is the one you need as well.

Ill give that a go as my dab reception is terrible in my clio.

I have a roof mounted one that looks like oem which worked ok then failed, replaced for another and it lasted 2 mins.

My Clio 3 has the Radiosat Classic unit with the CD player and Aux input. Does anyone have a recommendation for a DAB replacement ?

Thanks

I'm also using a splitter but the reception is pretty poor. Might have to try switching back to the original long aerial instead of a stubbier one i have now.
