[Boatanchors] 51J3 vs SP600?

[jhhaynes at earthlink.net]

If you want to receive digital signals or SSB then the 51J3 is 
incomparably better because the SP600 drifts like crazy.  And there is a
product detector mod for the 51J3 that is a big improvement for SSB.
And if you know the frequency you want to land on the 51J3 is also
much better.  But I can accept the views of others that if you are
just spinning the dials to see what's there then the SP600 is a lot
easier to use.  And maybe if you are wanting broadcast quality audio
rather than communications quality then the SP600 is better.
