    Hope someone can offer a helpful suggestion.

    I have an excellent hi-fi stack, amp, cd, Technics turntable and a Technics stereo synthesizer tuner ST-GT350.

    For some years, the tuner antenna has been plugged into a UPC coax cable outlet, providing great FM sound.

    However, I have recently changed to Eir, wi fi to tv, but no cable connection to the tuner.

    What can I do other than make up a dipole antenna?

    Many thanks

    If you can put up an outdoor (or loft) aerial look at the antiference "radio rod"
    You can get even better FM multielement aerials but theyre directional (ok if all the radio stations you are coming from approximately the same direction) Dont buy one of those circular halo type aerials. Theyre designed for horiziontal polorisation and all FM radio in Ireland (and the UK since the 1980's) is either vertical or mixed polorisation. (Why theyre still being manufactured is beyond me)
