[[As with all tuners, what is the antenna?]]
4 element yagi coax to balun at the tuner, with line of sight from 2nd floor porch to tower 26 miles away. But KCNV has relatively low wattage.
The thing is that my sony st-j75, pioneer f90, and even the Dynaco FM-3 have virtually no hiss with that antenna and station. That is what has me confused.
Maybe the Scott just has lower sensitivity for stereo decoder. No hiss at all when switched to mono. And it is a musical sounding tuner, but the hiss is too annoying in stereo for me.
