Anyone running a HiFi tuner out of the FM socket? I find the signal very iffy on my old Marantz tuner - it has a signal strength meter, at the moment Radio 3 and 4 are at 67%, and Classic FM at 100%. There is very noticeable hiss on Radio 3 and 4, while Classic FM is fine. This has been the situation for many months, if not years (sometimes 3 and 4 improve a bit!) I can get rid of the hiss by clicking the mono button on my amp. I haven't pursued this 'cause of the digital changeover, but that seems to have settled. So come on Virgin, let's have John Humphrey's in stereo without the hiss please!
