I only have one of those little clear-coated two-conductor wire FM

Those work acceptably in urban settings. If it's hooked up right, and
there are reasonably strong stations within 15-30 miles, you should get
stereo.


The problem with these in an urban area is they do little to sort
multipath problems - which are all too common with high buildings etc
around. And multipath can cause very audible distortion.

True, but irrelevant to the OP's issue.
