[Hammarlund] Favorite Hammarlund Radio

[Glen Zook]

I had a pair of SP-600-JX17 receivers for a short time a number of years ago.  I got them in a trade for a Swan-240 that I had acquired in another trade a couple of weeks before.  Talk about going from the frying pan into the fire where drift was concerned!  On the higher bands the SP-600s drifted even worse than the Swan!

Then, a couple of other operators thought that they couldn't live without the SP-600s so I unloaded them in a hurry!

Those older Hammarlunds look so "military truck-ish".  I really like 
that look. R-390(*) has the same kind of look.

At the time they first came out, the Hammarlund SP-200s were the most 
expensive receivers available, as I remember it.
