Magnum Dynalab - SR100 Indoor FM Antenna

I have one of the large 5' thin rod antenna from the same company attached to my primary sound system; this smaller antenna is for a secondary music system in the bedroom. It is simple but it does the job. In my Brooklyn location, I am able to enjoy a jazz station from Newark NJ without background noise.

Looks neat, not a very effective fm antenna

I was skeptical about this antenna but decided to give it a try. I have a reciever from 1979 that I hooked up rabbit ears to. I was hoping for better reception with this but the rabbit ears work a lot better. I am an ex electronics tech and tried raising this up and putting it at a window but nothing would get this to pickup as well as rabbit ears. I am returning it.

I use it for listening to terrestrial fm with headphones on my old late 70's receiver. It's the best tabletop gadget for this I know of. Locks in the signal strength and stereo meters. I threw all my old Radio Shack gadgets away. Reception matches my best on the wall dipole but of course it's further adjustable. For the money the base and 300 ohm to 75 ohm pigtail is unfortunately fragile and easily twisted, so handle with care.

Thie Magnum Dynalab SR100 Indoor FM Antennna is an excellent choice for FM listeners who can not use an outdoor FM antenna. When I moved from my house (with an antenna mounted in the attic) to a condo, I began searching for a good antenna that could be used in a condominium. This is by far the best solution I have found, providing a much stronger and cleaner signal than any amplified antenna. I live in the Eastlake neighborhood of Seattle, which means I am in urban environment but have Capitol Hill between my home and the location of the transmitters for the two stations I listen to (KPLU and KUOW). I now get a clean stereo signal with no noise on both stations with my McIntosh MR78 tuner. I think FM is a great source for news and music (in my mind, FM stands for fress music), and am very pleased with this excellent and affordable product.

Pulls a little better, looks a lot better. As I opened the box I realized I should have hit the flea markets for old fashioned rabbit ears. I once had a Magnum Dynalab FM tuner, this is nowhere near that kind of quality. I had to stick automotive wheel weights under the base for weight, suction cups useless. Go to their website for instructions, none included. As others have noted, lead is too short. 3 stars because it looks Jetsons.

Inexpensive, works great for my tuner, petty cool way to tune it, unique look. 5 stars because of price and it's well made and a hi fi piece.

I would love this guy if I could place him properly in my system. unfortunately the wire is integrated in and cant be extended.
