Tandberg 3001 and 3001A

I have an opportunity to purchase a used Tandberg 3001 tuner for $375 USD. Will this tuner out perform my current Magnum Dynalab FT 101? In addition, does anyone know what is the difference between a 3001 and a 3001A? Can anyone direct me to a website that will describe the 3001 features.

I'd be leery of a 3001 or a 3001A. My brother has one, which eventually died. It used multiple PCB's and after a while the connections between them went bad.

Instead, look for a Tandberg 3012 or 3012A. I've had my 3012 for nearly 20 years (or whenever it was that it first came out). Other than having to replace the micro-switches (about a $250 investment), it's never needed a thing, and it sounds great.

I have owned both the 3001 and the 3014. My present favorite tuner, the Kenwood KT3300D, pulls in more distant stations cleanly (I'm on Cape Cod), although it is very hard to find one.
