Is there a product you can recommend as "The Best Omnidirectional FM
antenna"? If so, which one is it? (brand/model and/or URL please) Oh - one significant constraint is that it cannot be larger than about 3 feet (1 meter) in any dimension, because it is going to be installed in my attic. I know it cuts the signal by 50%, but I am willing to live with that since I am assuming that if a whip antenna on a portable radio works great in my basement, a **good* omnidirectional FM antenna in the attic must work *at least* as good... An extensive search yielded only the Triax omni FM: http://www.towerhillaerials.com/view...&orderNumber=0 But where can you buy it in the USA? I also found an ANTENNACRAFT FMSS at STARK Electronics: http://www.starkelectronic.com/acantena.htm#FMSS, but the specs at that site say Boom length is 8' and Maximum Width say 55'. These can't be feet, right? They surely confused the foot symbol (') with the inch symbol (") - or did they? Anyway, any tip you can provide on finding such an omnidirectional FM antenna would be highly appreciated. VHF/UHF omnidirectional antennas that do *not* trap the FM band with a notch filter are welcome, too. Thanks, Lynn |
