Default A new addition installed today!

Now the fun begins, let's see how many stations I can pull :-)
So far, the sound quality is phenomenal, and using a cheap antenna. ST2 on its way, should further improve things I hope.

Roy.......Fabulous tuner. I had an MR88, sold it, decided I missed it, so I bought a second one. It's in the studio system.. Love it. Hope yours brings you years of joy.

You can try calling McIntosh, the Parts department and see if they have it.
