Answers:
All the above are correct!. The signal is so weak your body has become a significant part of the antenna!.
I would first try moving the antenna around the room(s), some spots may be weaker some stronger!. Does another receiver, say a walkman, work better in different areas!?
Near a window or external wall, or higher up might be luckier, but its hard to predict because every building and location is different, depending on construction, wiring inside walls and floors, even outside trees, power lines, hills etc!. Find out if anybody nearby has reception problems!.
Try different orientations, aim towards the transmitter or go vertical or at 45 degrees, etc!.
If no luck, you probably want to look at better hardware!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Your body is actually acting as a part of the antenna!. By moving around you change the performance of the antenna!. Try to moving or modifying the antenna to get a better reception!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
You need a better antenna!. Go to Radio Shack!. They have them with amplifiers!. Your body is acting as an antenna, and is actually a better conductor/antenna than your present antennaWww@Enter-QA@Com
It comes from the fact that your body naturally carries electrical current through it!. You might be able to fix the problem by putting aluminum foil on the antenna!. Doesn't always work but it does sometimes!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
