recommend good T shaped dipole antenna for FM?

Hi everyone, I have an Audio Refinement tuner with a run of coax through my crawlspace to the west side facing Seattle and ending in a T shaped antenna that came with my Linn Classik (part of my bedroom system). Can I do better at the end of this setup? Should I try a powered one? I get 4 bars out of 4 for my classical (KING) and jazz / NPR (KPLU) but I hear some hiss on KING.

Recommendations? TIA

I use the Magnum Dynalab ST 2FM with very good results. I also use the Monster Quad Sheild cable which I believe contributes. But if you want a "T" style, I have made my own in the past from 75ohm cable available at Radio Shack. You can make that as big as you feel you need and probably solve your reception issues.
Good luck
