Introduction - Yaesu VR-500 Operating Manual

Introduction

The VR-500 is a high-performance miniature com-
munications receiver providing general coverage
reception from 100 kHz to 1300 MHz on the CW,
SSB (LSB and USB), AM, and FM (Wide and
Narrow bandwidths) modes (this coverage includes
the AM and FM broadcast bands, HF Short-wave
Bands up to 16 MHz, VHF and UHF TV bands,
the VHF AM aircraft band, and a wide range of
commercial and public safety frequencies!) .
The VR-500's small size allows you to take it any-
where - hiking, skiing, or while walking around
town, and its operating flexibility brings the user
many avenues of operating enjoyment.
Operation of the VR-500 can be greatly simplified
by utilizing the "PRESET" mode. The "PRESET"
mode provides ten "starting point" frequencies (one
frequency in each of ten popular listening bands),
from which you may then begin manual tuning.
We appreciate your purchase of the VR-500, and
encourage you to read this manual thoroughly, so
as to learn about the many exciting features of your
exciting new Yaesu communications receiver!
