Default Good outdoor omni-directional fm antenna ?


"Brenda Ann"

I'll probably get flamed here... but there is really no such thing as a
good omnidirectional FM antenna. None of them have any multipath
rejection whatsoever, and since multipath is most likely what you're
trying to alleviate, you're just as likely as not to end up with just as
bad a signal (stronger, yes, but no less garbled and noisy) as you would
have with your indoor antenna. In fact, a cheap pair of rabbit ears will
usually outperform one of those turnstiles, unless you live in a perfectly
flat area with no surrounding tall structures.
