[Vintage-Audio] Re H. Scott LT-110 Tuner

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

	Hi All, 	
	
I have been listening with the 1963 H. Scott LT-110 FM stereo multiplex tuner,
while the LK-72b amp is being repaired. I have not bothered to connect the tuner
to the outside directional FM antenna, just a pair of rabbit ears. Not a very
good antenna, especially when set upright with arms spread against a wall behind
my LD storage cabinet. Rather blocks FM line of sight signals. They darn near
need a Leader Dog to find their way! 	
	
Just the same, this puppy sucks in signals like a Kirby vacuum with a souped up
V/8 Chevy sb engine running on airplane high octane fuel. The sensitivity and
selectivity is absolutely astounding. The designer was certainly thinking
quality when this tuner was designed.	
	
Some circuits are of mil spec construct, even to the point of using mil spec
parts. Perhaps overkill, but quality was obviously a high priority with the H.
Scott company.  	
	
Have any of you experienced superior performance on the older tuners as compared
to those built today?
