Other than that, I thought it would be nice to get as many stations as possible. At the moment, I have two receivers that I thought I might run each to an antenna or splt the signal. They are in separate rooms.
The provision for the AM antenna on the receiver has two threaded posts that you would put eyelets or a open spade on and then tighten the finger nuts.
I was checking out the Sony XDR-F1HD Radio tuner, but I don't think I really need it. I probably just need an outdoor antenna. Or antennas, if it is better to just give these receivers each their own. Are these FM antennas inexpensive?

Because you have a favorite FM station, I suggest a directional antenna like this

I would keep the TV and FM signals separate, running RG6 coax from the FM antenna to a 2-way splitter that would feed each of the FM receivers. I don't think an amplifier will be needed in the FM antenna system.
