Is there any fun in tuner?

Marakanetz,

If that's really your name..... The Magnum Dynalab suggestion is very good, however they left out one great point. The Dynalab FM whip (and I mean that in a good way), antenna. Don't be frightened by the $100 price tag. Money well spent. Will help you towards the most involving FM you've ever experienced. Good luck.

I am considering the magnum dynalab md102 with the DL whip antenna. Does it matter how you mount the antenna in the attic space, upside down or right-side up or along sloped roof trusses? Please advise. Thanks, great discussion.

Unfortunately, Fat Parrot, I must agree with you. Sadly FM radio has changed drastically. There are the same 5 or 6 formats, rotating the same 15 to 20 songs, in most major markets that I've been to. The only exception are the small college and public radio stations. (Even the small Hick towns try desarately to mimick the large corporate stations, most likely to mimick their revenue generation).

Forunately, Eastern Washington University has a radio station, playing a decent mixture of classic and recent jazz on 89.5 FM, which I listen to/support.

I won't even get into the compression/eq used in most FM stations, nor the lame brain dick jockeys which have infested our airwaves. Most D.J.'s seem to have no inclination for music.

I suggest trying your local public radio station, it may be a refreshing change.

Does anyone have any expierance with good FM stations in the San Antonio, Texas area?
