I've just had an FM aerial installed on my roof. I was having a Freesat dish put up so I thought I might as well get them to put an FM aerial up while they were up there. I have been using one of those 300 ohm indorr 'tape' dipole things for years but I get a bit of hiss with that so I was looking forward to some really clear reception with the new outdoor aerial. Oh dear, it's not to be. With the old indoor tape aerial I was getting around 54 db signal strength on BBC Radio 2 on my Sony Tuner. With the brand new outoor FM aerial this drops to around 32db!!! I tried a few different stations and they are all worse on the outdoor aerial. I just don't understand how this can be the case? The aerial is one of those omni-directional folded dipole jobs. Are they worse than useless? Has anyone else got one of these and it works well?
