Despite its incredibly compact size, the Yaesu VR-5000 is truly a communications receiver par excellence, providing continuous coverage from 100 kHz to 2599.99998 MHz, allowing reception of all the popular VHF / UHF bands as well as the Shortwave HF spectrum.

All popular operating modes: LSB, USB, CW, AM-Narrow, AM, Wide AM, FM-Narrow, and Wide FM are catered for, and to make operation simple and efficient, the "Auto" mode, the VR-5000 automatically selects the tuning steps and operating mode according to the frequency you have selected. You won't miss those quick, important transmissions with the VR-5000!

More advanced features include Dual Receive capability - allowing the monitoring of two frequencies simultaneously, providing the stations are within 20 MHz of each other and are in AM or FM-Narrow modes. Especially useful on bands where Duplex (ie transmit on one frequency, receive on another) operation is used, such as VHF Marine.

High (450Ώ) and Low (50Ώ) impedance antenna connections are provide to cater for separate aerials eg Long-Wire designs and Wide-band Discones etc.
