Default Car radio whip antenna question

Really? That's a pretty loose coil on those things, how much
inductance can it have? And frankly, do the auto manufacturers
actually *think* about things like this when car radio technology is
already so implicitly satisfactory?

We are talking about the same thing, right? Just a loose wrap of wire
on the nonconducting whip core vs. an actual compact coil?

I think the Fanfare antenna has such a special spool that ? makes it better
?.
