Tuner/MD 108 Question


I have just received a new MD 108 - although the Signal strength (indoor, attic-mounted Fanfare antenna)on strong stations is 96 (out of a 100), the blue stereo light doesnt go on and I receive all the stations in mono with rare minutes when it will come on. Is this a defective unit or is there insufficient stereo separation in my receiving area, despite the high signal strenth?
If anybody can answer that before I can reach Magnum Dynalab, that would be great!! I really dont want to pack that huge box and ship it to Canada! Otherwise I have to get the antenna up on the roof.

I'd call them. If your signal strength is that strong it should be coming as stereo. Sounds like something isn't working properly. The above advice regarding getting an outdoor yagi is a good one. My old Kenwood (modded) sounds almost like cd's. I've noticed most people don't even realize a tuner can sound this good. Of course you need a high quality broadcast. Only two stations here are that good.
