Hi, well for awhile now I have been using a 45ft insulated copper wire antenna that clips to my telescopic antenna. I run it up one of those old cable antennas which is grounded and goes up about 60 feet. But tonight I took the 23ft spool antenna that came with my radio(plugs into jack on side), I climbed high as I could and clipped it to the old cable antenna. While I was outside comparing the antennas, I noticed the 23 foot spool was picking up better than the "long wire" 45ft antenna. Why could this be?? Is it because the spool is clipped to the old cable antenna which is grounded, alowing better signal? If anyone has advice I'd appreciate it.
*Update
It doesn't pick up all stations better than other, just certain ones.
