Please Note: In order to avoid unintentional keyword spamming when searching for specific receivers, we have added an asterisk with some of the models below to remain in compliance with Ebay listing policies. Thank you!This sale is for an FRG-100B receiver. Cosmetically, the unit is used and there are some minor marks from previous ownership. We detail clean all of our equipment to restore as much of the original appearance as possible and to sanitize the receiver for the new owner. Please look at our pictures for specifics on the cosmetics as we have provided HD pictures to enable you to magnify for close-up observation. Electronically, everything works as designed by the engineers at Yaesu and the receiver has excellent sensitivity across the many bands. Production of the FRG-100 ran from 1992 through 2005 and this unit has a ID tag on the rear indicating that this is receiver was manufactured in 1995 (serial #4H100100). Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE This Yaesu FRG-100 is the desired "B" version that updated the original FRG-100 with an improved filter arrangement as instituted by Yaesu around 1993. The original wide AM filter was a bit wide and the improvement in this filter offered enhanced audio reception. The real news was in the narrow AM filter that is outstanding for AM listening in the "B" version. This FRG-100B comes with large amount of items that should appeal to the shortwave hobby enthusiast:copy of the user manualTechnical manual copy (service manual 79 pages)low noise AC adapterFRG-100 reference guide copyFRG-100 SWL Tips - by Dr PhilPhils Radio Tuning Tricks - Phil has contributed greatly to the hobby with his releases such as thisYaesu Radio Company brochure copy (4 pages)Universal Radio catalog page - 1995WRTH advertisement - 1994 (World Radio & Television Handbook)WRTH advertisement - 1998Passport advertisement - 1995 (Passport To World Band Radio)Passport FRG-100 Whitepaper review - Edition 2.0Medium Wave Circle reviewElectronics Australia review - July 1993WRTH review - 1993Passport review - 1995Additionally, we will be enclosing a CD containing many of these documents plus more items for your enjoyment. This is about 570 MB of documents and represents an amazing amount of documentation for this receiver. We do not sell this CD or documents separately and many of the files contained within are not available from another source. We ask that you refrain from emailing to inquire about us selling the CD or these documents separate from this Ebay listing.Over the years, we have had the opportunity to listen, to test, and to sell some of the nicest consumer and military communications receivers. However, we do not as often get our hands on the Yaesu FRG-100 receiver and are delighted every time that we do. In fact, each time we use the receiver we rediscover our love for it. Usually we sell the FRG*7 receiver as this was Yaesu's best selling unit for general coverage shortwave listening during the analog years. Yaesu had introduced other digital receivers over the years prior to the FRG-100 (FRG*7000, FRG*7700, and FRG*8800) and while they were nice, they did not offer the listening advantages of the FRG-100.But while the identification number in the FRG series got larger going from "7" to eventually "8800", the resulting performance did not improve remarkably. Then things changed in 1993 when Yaesu introduced its FRG-100 into a market already populated by the likes of the Ken*wood R*5000. D*rake R*8, and Japan R*adio NRD*535 receivers. So what did Yaesu bring into the market populated by these venerated units....well, it was value. For about $700...or mid price, you could have a decent receiver and not have to lay out $980 for the R*8, the $1159 for the R*5000 or the $1429 for the NRD*535.When you set the FRG-100 next to these receivers, you will see that it is not quite as full featured as some of its big brothers. But while it does not offer all the features, it is not devoid of them either. Also, with regards to sensitivity to grab those weak signals, it is outstanding. According to the Passport to World Band Radio 1994 edition, the FRG-100 "has excellent-to-superb sensitivity in the shortwave spectrum". Passport also claims that "equally important, the circuitry of the "100" is quiet --- you don't hear circuit hiss, and you don't hear digital hash, both of which can interfere with hearing a faint signal".Let us list some of the features of this FRG-100 so that you understand what you are evaluating and the value of this unit:· 50 Memories· Noise blanker· S-meter· Digital readout to 10 Hz that is back lit· Attenuation (3 position)· Scan with several functions including memory scan· 3 Tuning steps· AGC fast / slow· Digital Clock Timer· Modes of AM / USB / LSB / CW (and due to excellent stability, great for RTTY / FAX)· Coverage of 50 KHz to 30 MHz· Dimmer· Record jack· Remote jack· Squelch· Dial lock· Selectivity of 6 / 4.2 / 2.4 KHz· Mute line· Carry handle· Headphone jackUltimately, what it really comes down to is performance of this receiver. No receiver is perfect, but some are better at doing some things than others. Fred Osterman in his book "Shortwave Receivers Past and Present" calls this receiver "extremely stable, highly accurate, and very sensitive...an excellent RTTY / FAX receiver." His brief evaluation gives it a 5 star rating.We would say that this is a great receiver for the beginning or intermediate shortwave listener. It will also serve an advanced listener who is on a budget, but they may choose to look to the previously mentioned heavily armed receivers selling for more money. If you want a receiver that is a gem to operate, offers great sensitivity, and has excellent tuning accuracy, then the FRG-100B should be a great option to consider.This FRG-100 works superbly demonstrating great sensitivity on all the bands. While testing the unit, we were able to easily tune into the English language programs from Radio New Zealand, Radio Ankara (Turkey), and Radio Romania. All of these were picked up on our personal high end receivers and then compared to the reception on this FRG-100. Frankly, we were amazed at the quality of signal when compared to units costing 3 or 4 times as much money.Because this FRG-100 has a backlit display that can be dimmed, it can be used as a bedside receiver. Since you typically do not tune it using a keypad, but use a tuning knob, you do not have to worry about fussing with keypad buttons in the dark. If you need to move up and down the dial quickly, you can hit the "fast" button next to the tuning knob or use the up / down slewing buttons for similar flexibility. Such features give you great control over the receiver since you don't have to fumble to hit keypad buttons in the dark and can move quickly up and down using fast mode in 1 MHz increments to travel quickly across the various shortwave bands.If you are looking at this receiver and are new to shortwave, let us advise you it is a fascinating hobby. If you generally get your information from the traditional media sources, you are likely disappointed in the quality of what you hear for news. Shortwave listening actually allows you to hear and experience a whole new spectrum of information gathering. We regularly tune into news and information from around the world....in English. And while that information may be bent to that particular broadcaster or specific nation, at least is is not filtered through the traditional ABCNBCCBSFOXCNNCNBC. It is rewarding to tune into a number of countries, but it is also rewarding to tune into some domestic broadcasters for alternative news.
