Manufactured for FM Reception
This is a brand new, unused professionally manufactured 1/2 wave dipole antenna with tunable rods that allow this antenna to be used where outside antennas are not allowed or are inconvenient. This antenna will provide as strong or stronger reception as any indoor antenna on the FM band. This antenna was produced for the FM band. With the rods fully extended they are tuned at 88 Mhz and you can then shorten them if you have a target frequency that is higher in the FM band. A length chart is provided so you can measure, with your tape measure or yard stick, the exact length each rod needs to be for a particular frequency. In Use
This antenna is directional so use that to your advantage for your target station or orient it for best reception for the majority of your target stations. The rods are adjustable so you can adjust it exactly to the frequency of your goal station. Place the antenna as high as possible for best reception. Generally, the best orientation for the radials in a V shape at 90 degrees with the flat side towards your target. Excellent results have resulted from making the antenna fully vertical which is fully omnidirectional. It comes with an F connector which is the standard connector for FM tuners and FM receivers however, we have several connectors available including PAL, twin-lug, and push-on F and others so ask (no additional cost).

Flexible
This antenna can be used near the stereo or run a longer cable and put it near a window for best reception. You can use it in a portable setting or even mount it in the attic. The only limitation would be that it should not permantently be set up outside, but it wouldn't hurt it to use it outside on the patio or to a park in any weather just don't leave it outside full time. The antenna is also quite light and can be moved easily plus it can be hidden behind a home stereo as well. PLEASE NOTE
While this antenna is made for FM and the functionality is amazing, the radials are constructed of telescopic rods that are made of chrome-plated brass. They will break so you need to be careful with them. Handle them gently near the base when manipulating and it is best to find the best angle and orientation and leave it there. Usually a V shape at about 90 degrees is best but it could vary some depending upon your location or you can use it vertical for all directions. Obviously, this is not a particularly positive thing to point out about the antenna but you need to know you are not getting an unbreakable antenna by any means, in fact, unlike most of our antennas we sell, it will break if mis-handled.
