Welcome to E-Bay! Where you can be screwed 5 ways into next week.
ANYONE who buys ham or SWL gear on e-screw is a FOOL.

I will have you note that I bought my Yaesu FRG-100 off of eBay, and have
been quite happy with it. For $325 I picked up the kind of shortwave
radio I've always wanted to have, and have managed to pick up over 50
countries so far with the RadioMaster P-30 antenna I'm using.

Excuse me while I drop this person into my kill file.

Greywolf,
That's two fine and wise choices, buying the radio and plonking the idiot.

Greywolf,

Thank you. I mostly read the newsgroup and rarely have anything to say,
but this newb just had to get what he deserved. I need to strengthen my
filters here on the group just to weed out the noise and stupidity.

But as I said, I'm quite happy with the Yaesu. It's been a good solid
unit now for the last month, already receiving QSL reports back from
several countries, and I'm sending out almost nightly additional letters
and emails.

Just as a side note: Radio Prague responded to an email report in less
than 10 days, and Voice of Russia replied 9 hours after I sent an email
stating that the report was correct and that a QSL card would be sent
post. It's quite nice to see the stations adapting to use email and web
forms for reception reports.
