Produced

The quickest, easiest way to improve the FM reception of your portable radio or stereo

receiver is with an affordable FM Reflect Antenna. The FM Reflect can be bent and shaped to get the best reception from the circular polariza- tion now used by many FM stations. If youʼve made the leap to HD radio, the FM Reflect is also one of the few antennas that tested well with the new digital signal.

Now for the technical part: Compared to other indoor FM antennas, the FM Reflect achieves a higher signal-to-noise ratio and is less susceptible to interference from surrounding objects and people. The advanced dipole design is up to 213% more powerful than a standard dipole anten- na, and delivers maximum gain across the entire FM broadcast band. Unlike ordinary dipoles, with the FM Reflect Antenna there is no fall off near the end of the FM band.

Size: 54" all-copper element with an 8-foot feed line. Weight: 8.5 oz. Comes with “F” connector, balun spade connector and alligator clip.
