Apart from one being called DVX1300 and the other being V1300 is there any other difference in the specifications ?
The Amazon one does not have much info.
I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.

    I think they are the same. If you look on the sky scan website they don't make a DXV model. DX is just radio speak for long distance reception. Coincidentally I'll be buying one soon , maybe that one.

    Or you could go for the SE-V1300 which is more expensive so must be better. :D

    Or maybe the SE1300.

    It seems that these are all the same, just re-badged.
