Re: shark fin aerial?

Funny story. Have had my 2016 J11 QQ two weeks now. It appeared as though it had a shark fin aerial and I thought nothing of it. For two weeks I've been suffering crap DAB signal.

Re: Berlin Tekna - Interior Lighting Conversion

Re: Berlin Tekna - Interior Lighting Conversion
