\\\some vintage tuners are becoming stupidly expensive///I couldn't agree more. I live in a fringe area (about 80 miles NW of Minneapolis), and by the time I invest in good analog tuner, a tower that will get high enough, and a suitable antenna and rotor, the cost has become prohibitive. I'm wondering if there's some means of getting a streaming audio feed from the Net to sound good enough to keep me happy. I've heard litle good about Sirius or similar subscription digital radio services. If a decent sound card and a suitable external USB DAC could make good sound, there would be a whole world of music available at one's fingertips, so to speak. One can dream.....
Fortunately, there's an MPR classical station close enough to get by.
