I will add to my comment on amplified antennas that while I don't prefer them; in Doyle's case if his problem is the building blocking the FM signals, then an amplified antenna may be his only choice.
Cheap DIY FM Antenna
I bought a used Sansui TU-217 some months ago just to have some background music in my living room, I have two questions:
1-There are 2 300 ohm and 1 75 ohm taps in the back of the unit, which one should I use ?
2-My current antenna is a piece of wire connected to the 300 ohm tap. I don't receive some station correctly so I would like to build a small antenna. Thing is I don't have space to have a 3 feet piece of wire hanging inside my living room. Also I live in an apartment so putting it in the roof is not an option.
What can I build that's small and serves the purpose ?
Thanks !!!
