[Hallicrafters] SX101, 115, 117

[Paul Kraemer]

I fumbled an earlier comment using wrong reply
So here goes again
(1) I accidentally stopped the drift in my 101 when I had an old worn out towell over it as a dust cover while cutting stuff in the shop. Night after night I could hit the same net without touching the tuning. Simply amazing Yes, of course I checked to see if it was getting hot but the towell didn't make a severe difference, just a little warmer.
(2) What is the group opinion on SX 115 vs SX 117? I have a 117 and it is everything maybe more than I expected. If the 115 I always thought I wanted weren't any or a whole bunch better I would be a tad disappointed and certainly wouldn't pop for the coin to get one. Other than the looks factor, which I suppose is why I end up with a lot of my choices.
Cheers
