Have a look at Gert Nilsson's page about R-71 vs R-75 tests:
http://home.swipnet.se/~w-38231/dxindexe.htm
click on "Receivers", then on "comparison" (at the bottom of the page)

WILLCO's ramboard with 1024 memories is a must for the R-71:

just a bit expensive

I've tried both rx (stock R-75 vs R-71 + filter FL 44 A) side by side. I
agree with Gert's conclusions concerning handling and accuracy , but the
difference is'nt worth the money for selectivity and sensitivity which are
just a bit better on the unmodified R-75. The R-71 fitted with better
filters than the stock ones (have a look at e-Bay) is a very good rx. I'
wouldn't change mine.

Good luck

|| Hi folks, just wondering which is the better receiver for ute

|| good job. The only complaint I have is the lack of memories. 32
|| just aren't enough!
|| Is the R75 equal to the R-71A for pulling out those weak signals?
|| What would be a fair "private"selling price for the R-71A(stock with
|| no remote), should I decide to sell it? The radio is in excellent
|| condition both in appearance and operation.
