I recorded the "Best of XPN" from WXPN, a local non-commercial FM station,
this past weekend.  Let me begin by saying that theie audio is much better sounding
than any commercial stations in the area.  In general, the frequency response is
very good  and they don't seem to compress significantly.  The background hiss is
almost non-existant.  At low levels, the signal sounds quite impressive.  However
during the louder portions of songs, there seems to be quite a bit of clipping.
(No, the MD is not being overloaded, peaks are about -3 dB.)
I recorded using the built-in tuner in the DHC-MD555 shelf system.  Sony gives
few specifications for the FM tuner section.   Maybe I should have dusted off 
my Kenwood KT-815 tuner, which I know has a supurb FM section (0.04% THD
in *stereo* mode, thanks to its PWM detector) ...

Anyone have FM recording experiences to share?
