Can I pull in a FM radio station that is 75 miles away?!


Question:

Can I pull in a FM radio station that is 75 miles away?

There is a station that is about 75 miles away (as the crow flies) that I would like to be able to listen to in my home. The station frequency is 89.3, if that is of any consequence. I know that having a higher quality radio would help and currently I only have cheap radios in the house. I have also heard that I can make a homemade antenna with a specific length that would be optimized for the frequency of my choice. So, my question is, Is a homemade antenna coupled with a good quality radio going to do a good job of bringing in a fm signal from 75 miles away? Any other suggestions to accomplish this? Thanks!

Forget the wattage.. Antenna means everything!!!!
If you have an external antenna, and it's high you
should be able to pick up the station...

When I had an FM antenna on my roof I was able to
pick up stations 75 - 100 miles away....

Remember.. Antenna means everything..
You can have a $1000 radio and if it has a lousy antenna
it won't sound good...
