There's a really low power FM station nearby, 104.9 KAPY. My car picks it up most of the time, although it competes with a Christian station out of KTDD out of Eatonville.
My shortwave radio can also pick up FM, and actually tunes into both KTDD and KAPY at the same time.
My SDR, though? Can't find either. With a four foot whip antenna, or with the 75 foot wire attached - nothing.
Given that the shortwave picked up a TON of stuff last week, and my SDR has a lot of trouble getting the same stuff - I'm wondering if the SDR isn't up to snuff....
