Solid State is great
I want to know if Radio 104 (104.1 WMRQ) broadcasts with RDS
I am in Trumbull, CT I can get the station but I do not get an RDS signal. I know the signal has to be fairly strong for the data to be received. I get Stereo but no RDS :(
I have a Denon UDRA-M10 that can decode the RDS (If present of course) I get it fine in the car but my car radio does not have the RDS capability (2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ)

Thanks and sorry for the odd request

PS: I never used to get this station in my area Why I can get it now I don't know

I called the station and the person who answered said that they do broadcast RDS
Why I don't get the signal I don't know
How strong does the signal have to be for the data to decode?
 
OK Thank You motorstereo I get the station but I guess I am on the edge of the limits of that station
My apartment building is brick and I am just using an old TV antenna (AKA Rabbit Ears)
The RDS (Had many radios without it, the Denon is actually my first radio with this feature) thing is really not important but since I have it I might as well have a use for it as 104.1 WMRQ is actually the only commercial station I like
Besides 91.1 WSHU Bridgeport

Does anyone have suggestions for a better antenna that will not cost to much?
 
I think we're right on the limits of getting MRQ to being 20 minutes from the Mass border but it does show up. Agreed that's about the best that Ct. has to offer right now.
As far as an outdoor antenna I use a cheap RS omni and I'm able to pick up 104.1 in stereo from here.
