i need a radio areil, to pick up one station only, on fm, even tho the station is only 15 miles as the crow flys, it is hard to pick it up indoors, due to the walls being over 2 ft thick, thanks in advance

Try one of these in the attic, mounted vertically:

should be available in Irish Maplin stores.
The circular/'halo' type FM aerials are not recommended
