Tips needed for best FM reception

Yes the rotor is a good idea for some. I just happen to live in an area where most of the good stations are north. Being south of Washington DC puts that metro area and Baltimore's metro area in almost a straight line.

Magnum Dynalab for omnidirectional beaten soundly by the Reflect (ccrane.com) for unidirectional. Own both.

Celtic66, I think you mistook my reference - I was not referring to the omni antenna by Dynalab (in fact omni's were not the subject under discussion), I was referring to a sophisticated signal booster with some added controls over the signal bandwidth. New it cost about $300. In a suburban or urban location it works even better with an omni's, more for signal reduction and reducing the signal from adjacent, interferring, stations.

So you're saying if I use an element FM antenna such as a Winegard, a power rotor and a Magnum Dynalab Sleuth I should be in pretty good shape?......thanx for all the help guys

and remember your RG-6 double shielded coaxial downlead
