To get the best out of your tuner invest in a good FM roof aerial.
I had a smaller Ron Smith installed many years ago.......brilliant

I bought one of these tuners myself a few years ago for just £22 from that auction site. It is indeed a superb tuner, and apparently much better than the ubiquitous TU-260s that got all the attention in the hi-fi press, although I have only tried the latter briefly at a friend's house. As said above, sensitivity and selectivity really are excellent and the sound on a good BBC broadcast is clear, relaxed and detailed with good ambience. The only thing it does lack a bit is deeper bass.
What was impressive is the alignment was spot on with the most symmetrical filter response of any non-DSP tuner I've tried, including those bought new! Not bad at all for a tuner that was about 25 years old when I bought it.
