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

How about Citation 15/Advent 300/ Dyna FM3

I picked up a Citation 15 for $50 on ebay, spent another $50 to get it working and it is a fine tuner for little money. Good sensitivity, and selectivity and sounds decent. Build quality is VG. The Advent gives you a good tuner, with a little less sensitivity but you get a phono/pre section and amplifier section thrown in. Also sounds good but less reliable. Get the service manual and be prepared to fix it. The FM3 is available cheap cheap cheap and once you spend a little time aligning it you have a pretty good low cost tube tuner $30-$100 depending on condition.

My vote for low cost tuner with a little higher budget is the Quad FM4
