SB-301 and SB-303 questions

Mark,

I have one of each.  Both are quite adequate.  I prefer the 303, but not for any special reasons, maybe just because it doesn't have to warm up.  I find that both seem, to me, to hear better than my much newer (TS-2000), all solid state transceiver.  But then again that may be because I got my first call back when these units were "state of the art" and I want to relive my youth.

I believe, and I will start plenty of arguments here, that they are both ever bit as good as the Collins equipment that they copied.  Provided they were properly built by someone a bit above a beginner kit builder and is properly aligned.

But that's just my opinion.

73's,

Jerry, K0EJF

  I have a friend that is considering an SB-303 receiver,
I've never used one myself but I do have a SB-301 that
I'm quite impressed with.
I'm looking for any comments on the SB-303 as far as
just how good a receiver it is or isn't, and maybe even
how it compares to the SB-301

Thanks,

73,  Mark WB8JKR
