Yeah, I know what you mean. Only in my case.... well, Mozart hasn't had any new releases for more than 200 years, so I only need to check the radio now and then.

Originally, yes, but that was for a FM only tuner - the same quality as the Mk1's tuner. We put a really high end tuner module into the AM/FM module, it's due to be used in the 2003 model year cars from a major US manufacturer :)

We also added stalk control, antenna control, etc.

I have one station in my area that uses RDS the RDS icon on the empeg comes & goes even though the station comes in signal wise pretty strong. The only data they give out is station ID no messages or the like.

Yes, i'll have to say.. I was _really_ impressed with the FM preformance of the tuner module, it seems to mute out portions of the signal that arn't coming in properly. even on the small 30k watt station it sounds decent.

Does the audio signal coming from the tuner go through the Empeg's EQ?

Yes.

..or rather, the output goes through the EQ.
