You need a better antenna, not a different radio. Can you mount a whip on
the house? Radio Shack used to sell a suitable model.

I can do that, but I liked the idea of portable so that I could use it
in the bedroom, office, and kitchen. I spend a lot of time in each
place. I could run an extension to each place -- I wish I had done
this when I ran phone anc vcr lines. I don't have quite the energy now
I used to.
