[Hallicrafters] Thank You to all that have responded.

The SX-101 series is completely different from the
SX-100 and before.  The SX-100, SX-99, SX-96, S-85,
and the earlier receivers are all general coverage. 
The SX-101 series was the first of the amateur band
only receivers.  The earlier versions of the SX-101
covered 160, 80, 40, 20, 15, and 10 meters plus a WWV
position at 10 MHz.  The later versions covered 80,
40, 20, 15, 10, 10 MHz WWV, and a band that actually
covered 30.5 to 34.5 MHz for use with 6 and 2 meter
converters (this band was "calibrated" with 30.5 MHz =
50.0 MHZ and 144.0 MHz and 34.5 MHz = 54.0 MHz and 148
MHz.

The circuitry, etc., is very different between the
earlier general coverage receivers and the SX-101
series.  As such, it really depends on what you want
in a receiver.  If only the amateur radio bands then
the SX-101 series is generally better.  If you want
more than the amateur radio bands then the SX-100
series is definitely the way to go.

The SX-101 is a better receiver then the SX-96, or
SX-100.  The SX-101 sold new for over $100.00 more
than the SX-100.  The final model, the SX-101A has a
product detector, and selectable sideband.
