Hidden Antenna which one

Looking for a hidden radio antenna(under fairing).I've seen the amplified type from Dikota Digital & non-amplified fiberglass types.Which one do folks prefer & why?I use the radio 50% & Ipod the 50%.
I knew adding my Tour Pac(chopped) was gonna have some affect on something else.
Thanks in advance,00 wildglide

i put one of those short rubber antennas on mine. i built a mount and it mounts between my left saddlebag and stops just under the tourpac....it recieves stations very well, even in the sticks...i think it was 10 dollars or so at wallyworld..........

dakota digital works well, might loose some stations in the boonies but then you switch to mp3

Thanks guys,
I'm probably going towards the "Dakota-Digital" due to it's compactness.I want the rear of the bike to be as free of clutter as possible(so I put a big plastic box back behind the seat... ).
I was able to clear the Tour Pac rack perfectly with the lay-down style license plate bracket from Kuryakyn instead of the Harley one which they said would not work.
I will get some pics up soon,Thanks Chuck & HRK.
