I have always had a tuner with exterior antenna. Using an old Soundcraftsman AM/FM tuner from about 1987 it still works great.

Curt.......I saw the Soundcraftsman tuner in one of your photos under the Nakamichi ZX-7. She's still making music after 23 years. That's a good thing. :thumbsup:

Oh, I do agree with all that and my tuners are still on the racks and connected. I just have no real use for them.

I know some people are fortunate to have a local station that plays music that they like but I do not (anymore).

I guess I'm lucky in this respect. There are a few good stations in this area.
