hidden FM antenna

I'm not sure how local these stations are actually. I just did a search and I saw about 2 or 3 of the approx. 7 or 8 stations I listen to are local. The others may be too, but I didn't see them on there. They come in pretty clear though.

I just did the test. No AM still, so I'll be writing the company about that, cause it's supposed to have AM too. The stations come in more clear though, since swapping out to correct wiring (and extension). I'm still not getting one specific station on FM either, not sure what's up with that. Cause MOST of the other stations come in clear as a bell.

As a side note, my stock antenna never did work for me. By the time I got the car it would raise about an inch and stop. And it didn't pick up SHIT. So either way, this is a step up for me haha.

EDIT: The station that doesn't work is 96.1FM and it's here in Colorado Springs! One more thing though...I'm not sure just how much it's not picking it up. I have to scan for stations, I don't have it where I can just select the station. So maybe it's coming in, just not enough for the stereo to stop on it.
