The current car I'm driving "Corolla" uses a small helically wound
antenna, which is at the rear of the roof. It's pretty short overall,
and I still have plenty of sensitivity.

Newer cars have active antennas.

I don't think mine is, but I'm not sure. It's basically the
same setup as any other antenna, just the whip is
shorter, and helically wound, I suppose for tuning purposes.
I guess it's about 15 or so inches long. I'd have to measure
it. Of course, it also functions for FM too.
