I was curious if anyone can provide input, if you're knowledgeable, on the different tuner technologies like Pioneer's Supertuner III ect. Who has the better tuner? Or what I should look for in regards to the technical aspects radio tuner specs.

Thanks

Nobody makes an AM tuner that will even come close to the performance of your OEM deck.

Do you have information on what makes their tuner technology better than other brands?

Thought i would throw this in here...(just read it on the cc radio website...!) Sometimes pool chlorine generates electrolytic action which causes radio noise over a wide spectrum of over 500' from the device. Unfortunately there is no known cure.

That's really interesting! I didn't know that.

I've seen the Twin Coil Ferrite® AM Antenna before, the manufacturer says it's useless unless you're sitting still.
