The Grundig Yachtboy used to be well regarded for fax reception. In
the Bahamas last winter we traveled with several boats that had them.
No good. Very poor sensitivity.

I am interested in receiving weather fax charts, are the great lakes
covered. I found software that will demodulate the signal without extra
equipment so I was looking into a ssb radio. What kind would I need? I
want to get the cheapest receiver I can but one that would produce a good
signal for good charts. Let me know if anyone has any experience with
this.
