Tuner in the 600 range for classical music?

I am a classical musician and would like to record my performances from the local classical music station in Cleveland. Which tuners could be recommended in the $400-$800 new or used. The rest of my system is Onix, Cambridge Audio, and B&W.
I am looking for a tuner to pull in a strong and very clear signal. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cult Tuner-Yamaha T2-Poor Mans Dynalab-looks great works like a charm.If you want high selectivity (even at expense of sensitivity) look for an NAD or Nakamichi ST7.Also get a Fanfare Antenna.For $89 you get a whip Antenna that mounts on side of house that is amazing (Apartment dwellers either use splitter into your TV line or a Terk).

if you don't need sensitivity but you like musicality find a used perreaux tu3. with a strong signal this can sound as good as other source analog. its not dry or clinical which is how i find so many tuners.

Rx - Get an Accuphase T100 or T 101 and have Don Scott align/modify it. Also, if you can, get a good roof antenna such as an APS with a Channelmaster rotator. Make sure the cable runs directly to the tuner without amps or distribution boxes. I use this for BSO broadcasts - I'm 75 miles away from tower. If you need presets, late Mcs or jap tuners are ok.
