Fried eggs and yagi in the attic

Hi all:
Here's something I'm having trouble figuring out: My stereo FM receiver
has a "fried egg" static that's almost strong enough to drown out the
broadcast signal. I've tacked up a Radio Shack 300 ohm yagi in the attic
over the garage and the static seems even worse.
Meanwhile the two cars in the garage below get the same signal very
clearly. The yagi lead is coax all the way. The broadcast antenna is 15
miles to the west and the yagi is aligned north-south.
We'd appreciate any ideas, and Happy New Year!

Sorry, meant to say "folded dipole" instaed of "yagi".
