I used to have a top shelf FM reception kit (FT-101A Etude from Magnum Dynalab) and live near a mountain that made reception very problematic. I solved my problems with the ST-2 Omnidirectional antenna from Magnum Dynalab. It has a coil at the base that will give you 20dB of boost. If you want more you can add the FM-205 Signal Sleuth also from Magnum Dynalab, it's a FM signal amplifier that will boost selectively the frequency you need. Those two components gave me fantastic results.
