Yaesu VR-5000

To start with, the operation of the Yaesu VR-500 is complicated. The frequency range is from 100Khz - 2600MHz, so the radio is not only for shortwave reception. It is solidly built, nice-looking an sounds good. The radio has many functions, I don't know how many. I didn't have the receiver for long. It should be mentioned that although being a scanner, the VR-5000 works rather well on shortwave, provided you use a preselector or an antenna which mustn't be too long. Otherwise, there will be overload effects right away.
