FM Reception question, please


I have a Pioneer TX 9500 II tuner and have it hooked up to that antenna that is a wire shaped like a "T". Reception is farly good but I thought that I could improve it with an indoor antenna designed specifically for FM. Needless to say, I bought the top of the line Terk amplified indoor antenna and found that my signal was roughly half as good as copared to the wire. I tried alternate positioning and different gain settings to no avail. What gives? Do I have to go to an outdoor antenna to get better reception? Thanks for your interest.

Cpdunn99,
The answer to your question is that a boombox and car radio both have a "whip" style antenna.
IMO a whip style antenna works very well. Better than a dipole.
Cheers
Go to CCrane.com. Look at the FM Reflect. It should do what you want.
Good Luck
