Scott 310E (c. 1963–1964)
The 310E is an FM stereo tuner. It is the multiplex version of Scott's earlier 310 tuner. What survives is mostly Scott's own advertising from 1963-64 rather than editorial reviews, so the record is thin. The specifications Scott chose to print are still interesting.
According to a Scott announcement in Audio (May 1963, p.57), the 310 was already being used for commercial and critical broadcast relay work. The 310E was that same tuner "fully equipped" for stereo reception. Scott's 1964 line-up advertising in High Fidelity (Oct. 1963, p.21) placed the 310E at the top of the new component line.
Known specifications printed in the period announcement:
- IHFM sensitivity: 1.9 µV
- Drift: 0.02%
- Capture ratio: 2 dB
- Advertised as having high selectivity, low distortion, and completely automatic switching for stereo reception
No original price, full circuit details, or independent lab measurements are documented in the material on hand.
