Can anyone tell me why my VF car antenna picks up distant FM stations better than my dedicated outdoor FM antenna that is plugged into my home sound system?

Can you t-piece the FM aerial into the TV antenna?
I‘ve generally tended to get better FM reception at home than in the car, just shoving a 2m long piece of coiled-up COAX into the antenna plug … and TV antennas have always been the bee’s knees for me!

It an outdoor FM antenna that goes down to a wall plate then to the receiver via coax cable

Geez Louise - stop drinking the wrong Kool Aid.
We all know the vax was implanted to boost all reception.
My vaccine was 3G optimised so I’m left feeling that I'm not fully immunised now after the carriers shutdown 3G :mad:

Oh the conspiracies :p

That's why "they" urge you to get the booster shots, silly.
I'll bet the 3G capabilities were interfering with 4G & 5G connectivity ... do you think it's a coincidence that they're now recommending a yearly shot just as the 3G network is shut down?!

I just hope that the messy 4G<-->5G transitions I get around my house, which cause dropouts unless I lay the phone flat somewhere, give the mind-reading baby-adrenochrome pizza-shop lizard-people headaches as I walk around.
