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

RE: FM tuner recommendations

Wow, Don, I really appreciate your long and involved post - lots of good info there! I will have to reread it with more attention, but wanted to quickly answer your questions.

1)The $200 budget is for the tuner only, doesn't include the antenna.

2)I don't know why I have never tried the tuner sections in my receivers, I just never have. The receivers I have are a Denon AVR-3808CI and a Rotel RSX-1055; both are 'modern' receivers and reviewers these days have little to say about tuner sections so who knows if they are good or not. I didn't even consider the tuner section as a factor when I purchased them because, until this year, I didn't care - I pretty much only listened to radio in my car. Not sure that hearing what a receiver has for radio reception would translate to what a dedicated tuner would have. I 'assume' I get good reception here - even my cheapie clock radio can pick up the stations I listen to, though the sound signature is less than desirable.
