You are welcome Todd. That is a part of the hobby that intrigues me the most, 
the different model numbers etc. I remember many years ago, most articles 
said the JX-26 was the last of the SP-600's built. I thought, then where in the 
hell did this JX-28 come from? I surmised (correctly it turned out) that there 
was a -27 out there too. Thus started a search for the lineage of the SP-600 
receivers. I think I've got it nailed now.
