Greetings Bud,

        My choice would be the SP-600.  That's a personal choice
though...it's just a much nicer looking radio in my opinion.  When set up
correctly I can't imagine the R-388 outperforming it...But my experience
with the 388 is limited.  I haven't heard that they are that great a
radio...

Parts for either should be about equally available...maybe more so with the
Hammarlund.  I see a lot of SP-600's being bought and sold....not quite as
many R-388's.

Cecil...
