I've heard a lot of bad things about the SB-303.  I had one new, in the
1970s and thought it was a great radio, as did my friends.  Perhaps I wasn't
as pickey as now, but it was great.  I used it with an SB-401, and although
some call the Drake a "poor man's Collins," everyone called this setup a
poor man's S line.  It's  funny thing I guess, like others on this list,
remembering how things were preceived back when the equipment was new, and
then reading comments today on the internet.  I think the only negative
thing I remember, was that the tuning dials did not have a heavy free
spinning feel.   Tom W6EIJ
