Fellow users of the YAESU FRG-7 communications
receiver:
I have enjoyed the YAESU FRG-7 for many years but I always hated the
fact that I had to run a seperate LONG WIRE in order to receive a full
signal on the BROADCAST band (jack BC). I use a DIPOLE fed by coax
which I connect into the (SW2) connector which works fine for all of
the HF bands above the BC band.
After looking at the schematic the other day, I discovered that I
could place a 100 Ohm resistor from jack (SW1) to the (BC) jack which
provides the receiver with an antenna for the BC band. Thus, you can
connect your coaxal fed dipole to jack (SW2) add the resistor, and
throw away the longwire for the (BC) jack.
73 and HAPPY SWL'ing..
