Together with a good directional antenna this high performance two-stage antenna amplifier for the VHF FM broadcast band will enable you to capture far removed (DX) stations. Alternatively, it will drastically improve reception of FM signals you’ve come to accept as marginal and noisy in your area. FM/VHF antenna amplifier circuit schematic Together with a good directional antenna this high performance two-stage antenna amplifier for the VHF FM broadcast band will enable you to capture far removed (DX) stations. Alternatively, it will drastically improve reception of FM signals you’ve come to accept as marginal and noisy in your area. For various reasons, an increasing number of people are not satisfied with the quality of radio signals that can be received via cable systems. Unfortunately, cross-modulation, and other nasty effects created in the head end station are in stark contrast with the superb quality of high-end FM tuners that can be bought commercially. Not surprisingly, owners of such tuners will often prefer to have their own antenna on the roof. Add to that a high-performance FM antena booster like the one described here and you can start DXing as well as enjoying high-quality stereo reception. The author employs the present amplifier in combination with a Sangean ATS-803 World band receiver, a Philips RR-571 tuner and a single-element cubical quad directional antenna at a height of just 15 feet. Using this setup he is able to receive FM stations as far off as 500 km.
