FM Antennas For Old School Tuner?

I got a Yamaha CT-810 Tuner included in when I bought a Yamaha Ca-810 Integrated recently. It looks nice on my rack along with my other vintage Yamaha gear but It's not even hooked up. I don't really listen to FM radio much at all but thought it would be nice to at least utilize the tuner occasionally.  Any decent inexpensive antenna possibilities to match up with a tuner such as this?  Thanks.

Hands down, the ST-2 is the best at a reasonable price. I'm located between Milwaukee, Chicago, and Rockford on flat land and pull in from all three.

Powered Terks not so much.

If signal strength itself is not an issue, I'm still a fan of BIC's Beam Box antennas. They're not unobtrusive, but they're not huge and they look good. Very directional.

ST-2 by Magnum Dynalab is great, I have one mounted outside and live on the MA/RI border.    On a clear night I can get stations on the MA/RI border.   Also there is a college station a few towns over with a 175 Watt output, the MD 102 /ST 2 is the only radio that can pick it up.  

The ST 2 is made by Metz...  Fawcett Boat supplies has the same antenna branded Metz for $67.99.....

I also live on the Mass/RI border in RI.  Who would have figured?
