RE: Roger Skoff Wonders About The Music

Posted by Tony Lauck on December 16, 2014 at 08:22:34:
I had two tuners, actually. An EICO and a Citation III. This was before stereo broadcasts. I recorded some stereo broadcasts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra live over the air, made off of WGBH and WCRB. Mono FM reception worked pretty well, even 50 miles out. FM stereo never did work so well, even later when I had a Marantz 10B and was only 8 miles direct line of sight from the WGBH tower. The basic problem with FM stereo is that noise immunity was traded for bandwidth. But even mono FM was not transparent to live microphone feeds and even when the monitoring antenna was in close proximity to the transmitter.
