Nice to hear someone sing the praises once again
of the 515 -- it's almost always a keeper in a
collection.

On the 71A, I struggled for some time but ended up
selling one I had -- it just didn't have either the
audio or the ease of use that others had. Kept the
FRG100 because I just love to use it (and its looks).
And I have found the Kenwood R-5000 to be a superb
receiver.


Sadly, I will probably be selling one of mine, the R71A probably to buy
a digital scanner as more and more local PS agencies are going that
way..

I'll keep my JRC NRD-515 forever, the 525 until I really get desperate
for cash for something.
