Don Scott Specially Modified Marantz Tuner?

I recently purchased a Marantz ST6000 modified by Don Scott. He is honest and great to work with, and I highly recommend this unit. I live in a rural mountainous area and have interest only in stations 30-120+ miles distant and thus require a tuner with excellent selectivity and sensitivity. His modified ST6000 did the trick, and the sound is very nice as well. He also added a stereo blend knob on the back of the unit to decrease noise on distant stations without going entirely mono. I initially was interested in an analog tuner (MD, etc.), but I am now very happy with this one. It has a remote, station presets (which I thought I would never use, but I now use extensively), AM, and dual 75 ohm antenna inputs. The dual inputs are actually quite handy; I run one directional antenna in my attic pointed towards my most used station, and a second omnidirectional antenna for quick surfing. It also has a digital signal input strength meter in 1 dB increments, although you have to press a button to flip over from the clock function. On a final note, Don went out of his way to make sure the unit was entirely to his liking before he sent it out to me.

I've bought one from Don almost 6 months ago. What a great set of modifications, and I live in Los Angeles where I have no problems getting reception! Add a Fanfare antenna, and you've got a GREAT tuner set-up.

Hi,
I have a Tandberg 3001A and would like to contact Don.
Could anybody, give me a link?
BTW, in Stereophile vol. 20, #5, Mr. Don Scott rates his
dream tuners. The 3001A is not among them. Well, matter of
taste, I guess. But then again neither is Day Sequerra!!!
Instead, Harman Kardon Citation 23, is considered to be
(above) and a dream tuner. Did he have a bad day...?

Jstones, Don Scott is at www.geocities.com
