[Boatanchors] Is this the ULTIMATE SWLing Bandcruiser, or what?

[Barrie Smith]

Phil:

There is another R-274, made by another "H": Hallicrafters.  It's sometimes 
referred to as the SX-73.

It's a very nice receiver, and a fine band-cruiser (although the band-change 
knob will keep your wrist strong).

It does not have the frequency stability of your SP-600, since you have 
modified it, nor is it as accurate as my R-390(blank), but it does hear 
nearly as well as the R-390, and the audio is better.

Of course, you know that.  I just like to remind you every year or so.
