I've always been PC based for my music playback; so the only tuners I've had were in the car or portable. That being said, I jumped on the Software Defined Radio bandwagon a couple of years ago and now this little black box connected to antennas has literally replaced any and every kind of tuner I could possibly want. AM, FM, shortwave, weather...this thing literally tunes from 100khz to 1.2ghz continiously and all demodulation is handled by software. So...it's not pure analog; but the DSP that can be applied to the signal both before and after demodulation is outstanding. I mean having gentle noise reduction on an FM MPX difference signal creating a completely noise free stereo image is just...wow.
I mean..it's a complicated way to listen to the local FM or AM stations....but at least when I listen to the local AM classic hits station I can do so with a full 20khz channel width.
