hello all,

we moved from philly 19027 to collegeville pa 19426. can't pick up any radio signals for 90.1, 103.9, 105.3, 107.9 all fm stations. do i need a powered or outdoor antenna?

You need to get an antenna as high in the air as you can. Either a signal hits an antenna or it doesn't. A powered antenna doesn't "pull in" stations. Most of them have more gain so you can sometimes get a station or two that a regular antenna wouldn't but you stand the chance of getting more noise as well. FM signals, like TV signals, travel in a straight line from their towers. They don't bounce around like AM signals. That being the case, getting an antenna as high in the air as possible is the best for FM.

Best of luck.

Eric
