Which tuner to get and getting the most from it. Thank God, for the radio!

RE: You mean the signal strength indicator is always well up?

I very much appreciate all the good information given. Being currently out of town it is a little difficult checking and responding quickly.

You are correct Tim in your description of the antenna I am using. It is an omnidirectional. I began using this antenna after my roof yagi coax cable degraded too much (I hate going up on the roof). As an experiment I can try swapping antennas to see if the noise, which is evident on all stations, subsides.

In my area I am familiar with the relative signal strength of stations my tuner can receive. While perhaps not as accurate as an analog signal strength meter, the led display does indicate relative signal strength with weak stations illuminating only one or two led segments.

Is it a characteristic of omnidirectional antennas to cause tuners to be noisy on FM stereo reception?

Cheers,
Will
