Is there any fun in tuner?

I recently purchased a Magnum Dynalab FT101A (dealer demo)and an outdoor antenna that goes through my crawlspace then outside through my wife's garden and up to the top of my car port. It turns out to be the best thing to have ever happened to me. I work out of my home usually and leave the classical station on and get hourly news updates. I then switch to eclectic public stations from various parts of North Carolina. Sometimes I sneak out of bed at about 3:00 am when the signal's real strong and the DJ's play the best stuff. I never listen to commercial stations. The sound quality of this particular tuner is excellent!

Hi Marakanetz, I live in NYC and listen to WFUV, Fordham University's station. It features some of the best DJ's who pioneered real progressive rock radio at WNEW many years back. They feature a "City Folk" sound, kind of an urban folk rock with a twang, but they also get quite a bit eclectic at times. They feature live acoustic performances frequently. 90.7 on your dial. Check it out. I need a new antennae. My Terk FM Pro sounded great for 2 minutes, I dropped it (lightly), and wham ...stinky reception. My Musical Fidelity A3 tuner is not too shabby either.

Sure is,and theres a stationthat might fill you needs.I'm not a rock music listener but my co-worker is and it's K-Rock.104.9.Get a MAGNUM DYNALAB tuner and a very good antenna,dynalab makes a good one too.It should pull in some of the more difficult stations you want to hear.Hope this helps.

Video killed the radio star, but commercialism killed radio! Having worked in radio during the golden age of F.M. progressive (70's) it's really a shame that the F.C.C. deregulation allowed a few holding corporations to own most of the licenses in America. Consequently, almost all cities have identical sounding stations since programming is NOT done locally. And the commercials! I've heard stations go 5 minutes at a whack with ads, then return with only 10 minutes off music! Unfortunately, most R & R stations also EQ the crap out of the bass (kinda like a modern version of Phil Spector's "wall of sound") and compress the hell out of the signal! At least in N.Y.C., you have plenty of choices compared to a secondary or tertiary market; however, the best tuner in the world will not correct an artificially corrupted signal (source). Stick to F.M. in your car!
