Much rather have the used R8 if it was in good shape. Even better, spend a

Either of them are much better than the FRG-100B.

I can't speak to the R8, but the FRG-100 was a better radio than the
R75, having owned both. The Frog was a lot less flashy, somewhat less
convenient to move from frequency A to frequency B in a hurry, and
chuffed terribly, but the basic performance was quite good.
Once you got past all the bells and whistles on the R75, there was no
performance there.
