QUOTE(ggeatweb @ Oct 19 2010, 01:53 PM) What? I thought FM is just an analog demodulator, so the sampling quality should be exactly like how the radio station broadcasts. If there is some kind of digital sampling involved, I referred to this site http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Dave/Multimedia/node150.html and it quoted FM at 88.2kBps = 705.7kbps (1 byte = 8 bits). My understanding of why FM loses out is not really on the sampling rate but the distortion through the medium (air) as well as the quality of the receiver circuit. So to get better FM quality, get a better antenna and a better ICE unit :-) Ok, out of topic (my education background is on telecomms so can't help it  ) i agree with you. nowadays radio station quality is mp3 like. all stereo. our HU is pretty bad in radio reception. maybe antenna maybe the receiver itself. but if MP3 or CD it rocks!! |

I'm not installing it yet..so i reserve my comment on the reception first. But as far as other VG Sharkfin users review are concerned (from the first group purchase), at least the reception is as good as the stock antenna (if not better). So i opt to try it...

But when i try to place it on the Forte rooftop last nite, i found that the sharkfin is well proportionate to the car at the end

What I assumed was that 96kbps is the audio quality sampling rate from most radio station transmitted through FM. but then again, I maybe wrong. Iz, No problem la... I just recovered from fever. Still on antibiotics though... |

Seems like installing the sharkfin at night is not a proper time for the 3M to stick well to the cold roof surface..unless we use a hair dryer to warm up the surface first for a better bonding. Yesterday i try to find alternative double sided tape (3M Premier as suggested by someone) at Ace Hardware but unfortunately they dont have it. Did u bought other double sided tape that can stick well than the stock 3M tape? |
