Modern car tuners are much better than home audio tuners but your Mac should be a good one. A car antenna does not work well at home because car antennae use the car as part of the antenna. A rooftop antenna is the best and one with a rotor is even better. You should get the largest antenna you can stand and as a side benefit it could bring in TV as well and HI-Def if you are interested. A hilly area is murder on FM reception unless you live on the hill or in the right place.
FM Reception -Car Antenna vs. Home Antenna
I live in a hilly Northern California city. My reception on my home stereo is bad & I've tried several different home antenna's. I use a Mcintosh Tuner, so the tuner should not be the issue here.
Why is it that my reception is pretty darn good in all of my cars right outside of my house?
Why not just buy a car antenna & hook it up to my home system?
Sounds like a pretty stupid question, but what's the deal?
Thanks in advance for your time.
