Excellent Outdoor FM Antennas

Try www.antennaperformance.com for your outdoor antenna. I have their APS-13 antenna. It's 16' long. If you get it high enough, you should be able to get 100-150 miles. (By the way, I noticed that they only have the APS-9b to order right now. You may have to email for the APS-13.) For your tuners, try www.audioclassics.com and click on service. I have a McIntosh MR71 that Richard Modafferi worked on- (aligned and cleaned). It came back sounding amazing and looked new. Mr. Modafferi also does extensive mods on McIntosh fm units. Good Luck!

terrain. Because I spent a number of years selling and servicing audio in a area with limited FM radio classic choices - a LOT of my customers went thru gyrations in a attempt to get WFMT from Chicago.Terrain - most definitely including taller buildings even a pretty good distance away - if they are between you and the target transmitters antenna- you aren't going to get the station(s) you want.
Most areas have one or two antenna installers who are actually very knowledgeable about what can and can not be accomplished from your area.These are the guys who can typically stand in your yard and point out two to five antennas they have installed and tell you what the results were.As a group - antenna installers tend to be guys who will tell you what they want to use and what you can expect and are pretty much uninterested in what you want to install.My way or the highway.They are real ,real busy right now with everyone discovering the hard way that broadcast Digital TV does work lots better with a out door antenna.
BTW - I have been very pleased with the sound and programing variety available on the B channels of the HD radio services.

I'll second Talon4. I'm using an APS-9 on a ten foot mast on my roof. Not a high WAF, but it sure gets the job done. I also agree that Rich Modafferi does terrific work on tuners. He went through my Marantz 10B, and it has never sounded better.
