Default Best DAB aerial for JVC KD-LHX601

I have just bought a JVC DAB head unit and am looking for a DAB/AM/FM
aerial.

Does anyone have any suggestions, it would be mounted on the front part of
the cars roof so I am looking for a bee-sting style (I think the HAL2 aerial
from JVC will be too upright).

Many thanks
John

The HAL2 is very upright and will look daft at the front. I use the
Pioneer AN70DAB aerial:-

It's only been on a couple of weeks but it's worked flawlessly around
most of the south-east. I did install it at the rear of the roof though
as Pioneer recommend.

Thanks for the info.

Is the Pioneer a DAB only aerial though?


Thanks

It is. I got the impression from somewhere that the combined DAB/FM
aerials weren't as good. As I'm reckless enough to take a power drill to
the roof off my car I did the seperate aerial thing. Of course it now
looks like Goonhilly with seperate masts for FM, DAB and phone.
