with cable fm an analog tuner is a plus - the cable provider does not always rebroadcast on the exact freq.and you need to be able to detune slightly
FM Reception
Currently I am using a Terk with my tuner upstairs and a dipole downstairs. My reception is awful to the point that all FM must listened to in mono. I live in Benicia near the Carquinez strait (by San Francisco) so I am surrounded by hills and may not have a clear shot at an FM transmitter. The signals appear to be strong so I suspect multipath interference. I live in a condo so an external antennae is not feasible. Any suggestions?
