BOTSWANA VOA Relay 621 kHz QSL



The Voice of America relay from Botswana on 621 kHz was regularly heard at Pinelands with a Yaseu Musen FRG-7 receiver and 20 metre longwire antenna.

I received a QSL card in response to my reception report from the 24th April 1984.

YAESU MUSEN FRG-7 RECEIVER

After a three year break from dxing, I returned to the hobby in 1984 with a newly aquired Yaesu Musen FRG-7 receiver. The FRG-7 proved to be a remarkable performer with a quiet noise floor and good sensitivity. I guess it's no surprise that this set has become a classic receiver.
