I'll be moving soon - I've used an outdoor FM antenna for years but in my new place that's not an option. Can anyone suggest a very good indoor FM antenna? It will be connected to a Magun Dynalab tuner

Thanks in advance!

Interesting article but with sides of 9' to 11' it looks a bit big for indoors. How did you manage to squeeze it in and hide it.

You tack it to the wall. I hid it behind a lighted soffit that goes around the living room. Mine was about 14 x 20.

Do the "Coat Hanger" TV antennas work for FM? Mine is great here in the multi path mountains

Long ago when Radio Shack sold TV antennas I bought a medium priced one just for FM.  FM exists, IIRC, between channel 6 and 7.  That is the old analog ones not the digital ones.

If you can find a used TV antenna someone doesn't need any more they are good.  Just call it a ceiling decoration.  Hey, Elvis had a parachute covering the ceiling of the pool table room at Graceland.  You will just be a bit more Avant Garde than he was.
