    I think if you put up a decent antenna you will get quite a few radio stations.A 20 foot whip should pull in FM from a distance and a couple of wraps around radio will bring in AM .

    you should get away with 2213sc, but compare the load density and muzzle velocity 2209 might be more economical. 2208 start around 41.5 - 42gr 2213sc start around 44gr.150123
