It's too small to be of any use for FM broadcast band - diameter is only
about 1/10 of the wavelength.
Rather invest in a yagi or corner reflector for FM broadcast.
More like one wavelength: it's a bit over 3 meters. Still, as you
say, it's too small.
Elevation of the antenna will do more good than anything else, if
you're in a bit of a low spot. Pick an FM antenna with some gain
(Yagi, for example) and get it up as high as you reasonably can. It's
a lot easier to get an FM Yagi up a few tens of feet than it is to get
a 12 foot dish up that high!
