Hi all,

I'm looking for advice on a SSB reciever. I will be making a passage
from Charleston SC to the BVI around Nov 1st. At this point it doesnt
make sense for me to get more than just a reciever for weather updates
(Herb).

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Herb doesn't do just broadcasting. He will want you to talk to him.
So a receiver wouldn't work for that.

Also in an emergency a receiver will do you no good.

I wouldn't save money that way.
