But the audio on the 51S beats the audio on the R-390 hands down, also.
If you want to listen to AM shortwave broadcasts or join the 40M AM
crowd, and you care about weak signal performance but not about the
ultimate in selectivity, the 51S is a pretty fine receiver and I'd pick
it over the R-390.

That's why Sherry has the best of both worlds - an R-391 with a 390A IF
- which can be swapped out with it's original 390/1 deck in few seconds.
The /A IF is great for copying RTTY - the original IF is much better for
cruising the bands. It's an option anyone with either radio (non and /A)
can do...
