Thank you, all, for the feedback.

DeWayne, did you find your "deal" on a new 77? Any tips on where
safely to buy an new 77 that is competitively priced?

KC

I haven't been looking. I think I'd rather find a nice Drake R8.

I've been considering the Radiolabs upgrade, and besides the SSB
sensitivity issue, there's also the lack of fine resolution for the
beat frequency on the 398/909.

The ATS-909 issue is that the Radio Labs mod filter is too wide for SSB,
way
too wide! I can hear hams at least 5 kHz away. Otherwise a nice radio.


So, I'm also wondering about the SW77 to replace of road-worn Satellit
700.

How's the SW77 working out for you?

Thanks, KC

The SW77 is a sweet radio overall. The audio may not be as good as the
SAT
700 but quite acceptable IMO. The sync detector is quite nice.
