In Reply to: RE: 10 is a LOT better than 7, but even better would be with a directional antenna with gain posted by Mr_bill2 on October 2, 2013 at 17:36:44:
with the gain from a passive antenna. Masthead amplifiers will add noise.
But, more gain from a long boom passive antenna can lower the noise of the radio system to the inherent noise of the tuner itself / the program.
IME valve tuners need to be driven quite hard before they reach maximum sound quality.
