I admire you explaining your reasoning to us and it seems to make sense...except for the following:

You want to buy an old Jupiter to try out a DSP radio. Possibly you are overlooking the "old" part.

I have not owned either a Jupiter or an Omni VII, but I am sure of one thing -- time and technology march on. You may be doing yourself a disservice by comparing an old radio to a new radio. The Jupiter, being "old" may have flaws that turn you off to DSP; however, the new radio may well have addressed those issues you might not have liked in the earlier radio.

In any event, good luck with your decision and let us know the final outcome.
