cool item

Does it make Radio 3 sound any better ?

Why should it have anything to do with FM as a modulation type? An amplifier needs many attributes, one of the problems with wide band amplifiers is overload with strong signals If that occurs then the resulting non linear effects cause mixing to occur, and then the band is full of spurious stations made up from bits of those already there. I'm sure we have all heard the effect where a station appears to have two programmes on at the same time on frequencies which should be clear, masking any weak stations and causing mush and burbling sounds.

This is the area where I do worry about the current design of receiving equipment, as the software defined radio often has a wide band amp at its head. This is where the device tends to get most of its problems. Brian

Brian - The description of the item bears no relationship to the actual item which is for sale. The actual item is some sort of mechanical equipment - not radio based equipment. It's some sort of strange mixup by the seller.

I thought it was some kind of torture/exercise device.
