Reception area of FM broadcasts

A home receiver can catch weak FM stereo signals through the use of a tall, directional or ultra-sensitive antenna. In a moving vehicle, the area for good reception is limited because of varying conditions encountered while driving, including the types and heights of broadcast antenna structures, signal strength, engine noise, etc. For best reception with manual antenna, extend the antenna mast as far as possible.

Transmitting Antenna 100 Meters High

Effective Radiation Power 1kW

FM Stereo Auto Radio 12.4 miles

FM Monaural Auto Radio 31 miles

Home FM Stereo Receiver 62 miles

Reception quality varies depending on the power of the FM station, natural and artificial barriers,weather conditions, etc.

Multipath

The reflection characteristics of FM waves cause another problem called multipath–FM wave signals reflecting off of buildings, mountains, etc. When the antenna receives direct and reflected waves at the same time, distortion of sound in the treble range often occurs, such as static or harsh-sounding voices. THIS IS NOT A TUNER PROBLEM. Only moving to another area with a clearer signal path can remedy the situation.
