So, what music are you listening to now?

The one I listen to won college station of the year, last year I think. University of Missouri is the classical one, only they pretty much play NPR news and some bullshit I call "Kitchen Klatter for Liberals" over and over all day. I don't mind hearing the liberal side of things, but I don't want to listen to reruns of it five times a day.

If it wasn't such a pain in the ass, I'd extend the mast on my Weinguard omni and pull some new shielded cable to my receiver.

I've been running a Magnum Dynalab ST1 on the roof for years. Think it might be time for an ST2. Or maybe the Highly regarded Fanfare model? I also think I need to raise the mast another section or two.

How do you like the Weingard?

It's pretty good for a cheap omni, will pull a couple of stations 70 miles out. I've got it mounted pretty low.

Remember years ago I had one of those round dial Pioneer super tuner AM/FM's in my truck. Depending on how I parked and weather conditions, I could pull Kansas City & St. Louis in with it. Either one is well over 100 miles in a straight line.

Actually, the best tuner I currently have is the one in my 1000A. It's only a three gang, and the sound quality isn't quite as good as my 717, but it pulls in an incredible amount of stations. It's been recalibrated and I replaced the nuvistors.

Bad thing is, unless I go with a directional and a rotor there still isn't shit to listen to, or perhaps I should say there's nothing to listen to but shit.

I guess I am at an advantage as I live in the city. Some of the stations I listen to are only a few miles away. Unfortunately, it also means I have a greater selection of absolute crap to listen to.
