Almost any of the stubby antennas you buy come with several thread options in the package. The one I ordered came with 4 different types so I sat there and tried them all till I found the one that made the antenna sit flush.

My stubby antennae came with adapters for 4 sizes. I don't have the size but have to say I didn't notice any difference between the length of the antennae and pulling in stations.

I notice a difference on mine. Some stations come in fuzzier then they were and I dont get as much distance with it on my normal stations then I did with the stock.
