Hey Dennis: One thing I think you'll like about the SRF-39FP is that the wheel well for the tuning thumbwheel is more recessed, making it much easier to turn the dial, and giving it a more fluid feel to it. The thumbwheel itself appears to be the same: it's just you get a much bigger piece of it than on the 59. I also think the variable capacitor itself turns smoother as well, so it may be that these earlier CXA1129N radios used different/better components?
