RE: FCC Orders All TV's To Have Digital Tuners By 2007

The Realistic TM-152; I have one still today, it tunes/decodes AM stereo
stations. I hope to use it someday going into my minidisc recorder,
recording WJIB off air at the studio/transmitter site. Bob's AM Stereo
seperation is simply breathtaking. I made a recording on-the-fly while in
Lowell, MA for a couple of days last month and needed a better signal to
noise ratio to make a more ideal AM stereo demonstration recording.(This was
using the Sony SRF A1 Walkman - it decodes C-QUAM, Harris, Kahn-Hazeltine
and one other mode of AM stereo that doesn't come to mind right now).
