why would you want something with inferior selectivity and no digital
readout and no signal processing features like a sync detector etc ???

get a satellit 800, a real receiver

Hello all,
am thinking of buying a FRG7 and would be interested in
hearing others thoughts on this receiver.

You don't need digital readout to have an accurate frequency fix.

But a digital display makes accurate readings so much easier. The
display on a $50.00 Degen DE1103 is far easier to read accurately than
the FRG7. The FRG7 was a nice radio when new, and if you are into knob
twisting it is still fun to play with. So is a Kenwood R300. In fact
those old analog receivers really serve as reminders of how far
technology has advanced in the past 30 years.

Yasu FRG7 and the Kenwood and Lowe HF-150 Radios.Maybe I should start
looking for one of them.A good working one at noo too much money,of
course.I dont do ebay,where else could I find one?
