Tonight I listened in my truck to the "local" classical station playing a Mozart piano concerto I did not recognize ibefore I lost it. As I got closer to home, there was the familiar ghosting and then adjacent station override. The reason I bring it up is because despite the obvious problems, the Sound was there until the end, and the music delivered, with the proper "ringing" from both the piano and the massed horns. Basically, the signal-to-noise ratio was simply better than what I usually get from my CD or LP playback, and I wound up with a musical fix almost as good as I get from my house system with LPs on a typical weekend.
I mention it was my truck because this radio and speakers are TERRIBLE, absolutely beneath consideration for a house system.
What I wonder is how does the FM shrug off such very-obvious problems, while the LP(for example) gets so bogged down?
Yes, the electricity is very much a moving target, all right; but what is it about FM that somehow punches through?
Best regards,
