I don't know how far you are from WQXR, but I listen to WCPE, an all classical station located about thirty-five or so miles from me here in North Carolina, and the Yamaha does a fine job with that, so I would answer your question "yes." In fact, I have only had the Yamaha receiver for a month or so and I am quite pleased with it so far. The Yamaha replaced a rather old Yamaha tuner and NAD integrated amp, and the new receiver is a noticeable improvement.

I don't think you will get any benefit from tuning the antenna for this radio. I did not attempt to tune mine but had trouble with the connector. The threads were so bad that I severed the wire while trying to tighten the connection. I returned the radio for a full refund. I did operate it briefly and tested it against a 15 year old GE 40ch walkie talkie with an external antenna jack. The GE radio performed better in my side-by-side comparison.

I do not have that problem with this tuner. It locks in the stations very well. I have had your problem in the past with other tuners.

Yes the tuner is a bit touchy however I was able to tune in quite a few stations. It seems to me that in an emergency you may be able to get more stations that will carry important information. I think it is a good radio for the money when you consider all of the other features.

Damien, If your CD player/boombox already has a radio tuner and the problem your are having is that the radio stations are not received well or are too noisy...this one should do the trick.- Sarvesh

good question, sorry can't answer. i didn't keep this product long enough to find that out since the radio sensitivity was so poor that the tuner function is rendered , essentially, useless.

I use the RCA radio in the mountains to listen too public radio. It performs well. I wish it had digital tuning, but otherwise, I am very satisfied.

If you go to serius' webpage http://www.siriusxm.com/ all of your questions should be answered. Personally we had no problem with the equipment or service.

This is a CB tuner enabling U to fine tune in the signal....CB radios bounce signals from antenna to antenna...Ham signals work off repeaters which enable users to extend their range nationally and even globally....if U want a crisper signal then a tuner like this is great for a CB....

I'm uncertain; but for the cost, try it. If it works, it's the best on market for what it offers (IMHO). If it does not work for you, you can, I believe, easily sell it. It is my "go to" tuner for all my basses! Best wishes.

Not that I'm aware of, but that would be great. The radio is fantastic. I'm getting stations I'd never gotten clearly before. It was a big investment for me, but glad I took the plunge.

B.R.: I don't get any drift with this tuner. I even use the radio in my office- a small room full of computer equipment and once I get a clear reception (by turning the radio this way for stations to the north or that way for stations to the south) and rotate the antenna I get clear reception for hours.

I am amazed by the quality of the FM reception...when I can get it. Unfortunately where I work (which is why I got the item in the first place), I get only very few stations due to interference by building/steel, etc. I've not tried the record feature.

FM reception is very good in the city--don't know about outlying areas. It's a little tricky to tune since not much space between bands, but still a very good little radio for the price.

I can't answer your question because I was never aware that such problem existed. I am not the best source for your query because I tune this radio to only three stations: The Jazz, classical and 770 talk radio in New Jersey. It perform well with no problems. In short I never tested the entire band with.

I get about 40 channels with my digital tuner boxes, some of which are pretty good. Unfortunately, something's wrong with my iview after 3 months---it stopped tuning in anything at all (I'll probably have to send it back). My olderZenith box still works great.
