Default Radio signal

I have a radio in my room and I'm trying to get better reception on it.
Are there any things that some of you could recommend to help improve the signal so there isn't so much fuzz?


Also is there a way that I can listen to FM radio off the internet?

TNKS

You might be able to find an audio stream of the station you are trying to get by looking on the station website.

To generally improve your reception, try the following tips:
Extend the antenna [or antenna wire] as long as possible. If your particular radio has an FM antenna wire, extend it flat and tape it to the wall vertical, and as high as possible.
Try taping the antenna to a window or metal window frame. If you have a central heating system, try taping the wire to a heating pipe.

Thanks Ash.
I found this web site by google Radio-Locator it has the radio station that I wanted, and it's doesn't have any fuzz.

I'll also try those tips you mentioned.
