Scott 359RS
Documentation on the Scott 359RS is thin. The Archive's fact sheet for it is empty. What survives is a fragmentary High Fidelity "New Equipment Reports" entry from September 1984.
The tuner section is the one part of the 359RS that is actually documented. High Fidelity (September 1984, p.26) measured stereo sensitivity at 35½ dBf for 50-dB noise suppression at 98 MHz, with 0.46% THD. Sensitivity was 36½ dBf at 90 MHz and 37 dBf at 106 MHz. Mono sensitivity for the same noise suppression figure was 113.4 dBf. The same review found the high and infrasonic filters effective. It also noted that the "+6" tone-control setting produced only a modest 3-dB boost.
Beyond that, almost nothing is recorded. No power rating, original price, or production years have been confirmed. It is an obscure model even by Scott standards.
