[Boatanchors] FS: Kenwood TS830S Nice But Needs a Bit of TLC

[Michael, W1RC]

This is a nice clean KENWOOD TS-830S that needs a bit of TLC. Since 
there were the "top rig" in the early 1980s it's old enough to 
qualify as a "Boatanchor" so here it is!  Also it has vacuum tubes in 
the RF amplifier!

Includes both SSB and CW filters.   All receive functions are fine. 
Bias set up on finals fine, high voltage OK. There is NO R F output. 
ALC meter pegs with Mode switch in TUNE and SEND-RECEIVE set to 
TRANSMIT. Meter adjustment VR6 on IF board does not bring meter into 
correct range. I wish I had time to repair it but this is another 
project that cannot be undertaken. Regretably, it and a few other 
such "projects" must go. May be an easy fix. I have a copy of the 
Instruction Manual and a .pdf of the Service manual. Just to make 
sure that everybody understands this: This radio is offered in 
non-operational condition and will require a modicum of expertise, 
savvy and a bit of time to resolve.

I have $200.00 into it and that's what I want for it, plus actual 
shipping costs.

Thanks and 73,
