In Reply to: which antenna for Tandberg 2020? posted by phil100a@hotmail.com on July 1, 2016 at 16:38:51:
The more valid question is "which antenna for these stations, in these directions and distances, from where I live?"You need an antenna - and a place for it - which will provide a signal with low multi-path and full limiting on all desired stations. This is the only way to maximise ROInvestment in a tuner.
Most signal strength indicators on most tuners are designed to sell tuners. And not to provide and accurate guide to variations in signal strength by station where you live.
Even with an external multi-element directional high-gain antenna - that can be pointed at each station via a rotor - it is IME almost impossible to cause overload.
The right antenna can be more important than which tuner.
