the Device performance of good-old-hifi [1]
A first-class Stereo Tuner Pioneer with automatic noise reduction.
The advanced Hi-fi technology in this device of that time, especially with the Rec-Level check, makes it a very valuable tuner for anyone who makes recordings from the radio. A signal generator sends a 440Hz signal to the output of a highly stable IC - at the level of a 50% FM modulation.
