They both have the same power and have four channels available. You'll notice that to get the SSB-2010 configured for land use (conversion kit) it will cost you about the same money as the STX-101 although it represents a savings of $200 or so.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27923" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27923" dir="ltr">The only "advantage" of the STX-101 that I can possibly see is that if you want more than one person to listen in on the conversation, it has a built in speaker. However, after experience with two different STX-101 units I will say the audio clarity between the STX-101 speaker and the SSB-2010 headset is dramatic, in favor of the SSB-2010. I have found the audio from the STX-101 often to be difficult to understand and very sensitive to minor volume/squelch changes. By contrast, the SSB-2010 in Cliff's R-300 had very clear audio. I am hoping the difference is because the speaker in the STX-101 has some plastic over it to protect it from water splashes which is interfering with good transfer of speaker vibration. I will be very interested to try the headset with the STX-101 surface unit to see if the audio is better.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27923" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27923" dir="ltr">The SSB-2010 does have some advantages on it's own in my opinion. It is waterproof to 500 feet so if water does get on it or it goes overboard by accident there's no loss from water infiltration. It's pretty aggravating being in a small dinghy trying to keep water from splashing on the much larger STX-101 and also concentrating on communications. I am probably going to mount my STX-101 in the submarine for that reason. However if I had it to over again I would just go with two SSB-2010. In fact, I'll sell you my STX-101 if you want it. :)</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27923" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27923" dir="ltr">Jon</div><div class="qtdSeparateBR" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27913"><br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27919" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27918"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27917"> <div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27916"> <font size="2" face="Arial" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27915"> <hr size="1" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_27914"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Alan via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Personal Submersibles General Discussion <personal_submersibles@psubs.org> <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Wednesday, August 1, 2018 7:17 PM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Comms for the SeaQuestor Sub<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_28164"><br><div id="yiv8246844443"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_28163"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_31010">Thanks David,</div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">I have to go through this process so anything you can tell me</div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">is helpful.</div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">I presume you will be buying this conversion kit for the SSB210.</div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature"><a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" target="_blank" href="http://oceantechnologysystems.mwrc.net/en/product.php?product_id=44774" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533158768213_31011">http://oceantechnologysystems.mwrc.net/en/product.php?product_id=44774</a></div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">I believe Scott has this setup.</div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">OTS says you can convert the SSB210 in to a surface unit with the </div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">conversion kit, & I am wondering what advantage the standard surface</div><div id="yiv8246844443AppleMailSignature">unit has over the converted SSB10.
