I'd rather not irritate my neighbors and fight with my HMO. There are other ways to get what I want. The signal atrength and quality is OK, the noise I'm getting on my favorite FM station (WGMS, Wash DC.) seems to be from "HD radio self noise". WGMS is one of those who broadcasts HD digital FM out on the sidebands, and the tuner in my HK 3480 receiver doesn't have the narrow-band IF filters to fully "scrape off" the HD outliers. Even so, it does a reasonably good job, have to turn up the volume pretty high to hear the background "shhhh", especially with the FM-6 antenna. Although the FM-6 doesn't deliver higher signal strength than the vertical folded dipole, its signal results in better quieting. Brian Beezley suggests I install a post-detection filter in the tuner section to get rid of this residual HD radio self noise.
