[Hammarlund] At the risk of...

asking a question that might not have a quantitative answer, I'd be
interested in everyones opinion of what might be considered the overall
'best of breed' of the Hammarlund GC receivers.  I'm not asking which is the
'rarest', or the model that commands the highest prices these days... I mean
which one is considered the all time best Hammarlund *receiver* made.

For some reason I have an affinity for Hammarlund. Maybe it's because it was
the first honest to god SW GC receiver I owned (which might also explain why
I'm partial to the HQ-180... I now have two of em).  But I see the SP-600
seems to be a favorite as well. Or is there another 'sleeper' that doesn't
seem to get the respect it deserves.

Thoughts? Opinions?

Thanks & 73
