    Hi,
    I have the Hm55B and , I must say , it works great. Easy to use. Now the down side, it is not stable as I thought.
    It sit on the kitchen table and the numbers jumps a lot, 88,90 9X back to 88 . I ve tried to be away from everything, outside,
    and does the same.
    But in all, easy to use.

    I will try the other one pretty soon, to see which is more stable. The HM55 does not give you all the degrees of a ROSE. right now, I think it 64 direction only. The other one , it might give you the 360 direction... I'll have to look at it in details..

    Cheers
    Yosh
