While Rob sorts his table by 'Dynamic Range Narrow Spaced (dB)' I look
at 'Filter Ultimate (dB)' as I detest filter blowby.  Filter blowby
renders all the other numbers moot, IMO.  I tend to think that for SSB
operations 'Dynamic Range Wide Spaced (dB)' is important, if I
understand it correctly, and '100kHz Blocking (dB)' seems to be a
measure of how well the receiver handles the band with a lot of strong
signals.

Taken as a whole of all the numbers in the table, it seems Elecraft has
the top two spots well in hand.  The difference being what you intend to
use your radio for.
