Antenna "tape" performance?

Hi everyone. I'm awaiting the arrival of a new E-Glide Classic--which will replace my FXDX--and planning a few mods. One will be the quick disconnect kit to make the tour pak detachable. Along with that I need to do something with the antenna. Stock solution is a relocation kit, but someone suggested installing antenna "tape" from Radio Shack inside the fairing. I like the idea as it would not only eliminate antenna switching but also save money and (I think) improve the look of the bike--no more whip antenna.

OK, after all that, here's my question: Have any of you tried this or know from your own experience what kind of reception I would get with the tape vs. the whip antenna?

Thanks!
Roger
