In Reply to: RE: Instead of how many tuners? How many of you have a good antenna? posted by Timbo in Oz on February 24, 2016 at 01:58:10
...unfortunately, the state of FM radio programming in the US is generally appalling so the rotator rarely gets repositioned.

... methinketh, since '83. Replaced a Winegard wedge antenna beaten-to-shreds in 70-mile-per-hour wind-n-rainstorm by a long-since-removed pecan tree. Roter is Master Roter, which replaced Alliance-tenna roter. Antenna missed the KSAN-KZAP era, but received such 80s golden-era gems as: KDVS Davis, when Paris-n-Shadow were DJs; Quiet Storm KBLX from Berkeley, along with eclectic KPFA, which played Grateful Dead New Years' Eve concerts after KSAN went country; classique KRQR from Sutro Tower, along with KKSF's transition from rocker to smooth jazz; KUOP's par-tay rockin' Soul Patrol, who funked-to-the-P whilst moving transmitter location from Stockton campus' Burns Tower to Mount Oso outside Patterson; as well as Nevada County's voice KVMR. KPFA's 59 kw signal is damn-near drowned out now by Nevada City's 600 watt KNCO signal from Banner Mountain, which moved from 94.3 Mhz to 94.1 Mhz in '03. Pointing towards Bay helps, sometimes. Gotta use digital tuners nowadaze @ QTH to attenuate modern RFI sources. So Sony's now-classique XDR-F1HD tuner just sounds better with age. Only used roter to watch blacked-out Raider games from Chico's television transmitters on Cohassett Ridge. 73s para Sactown
