Carl,

Oops, caught me again, i guess it would be better to say it's is a steady carrier?

I was really surprised that it was an 830, the ham he got it from was notoriously cheap (way beyond frugal) and it would have been unusual for him to splurge on a top of the line unit.

I had the Kenwood 599 series twins (separate rcvr and mtr units) for 30 years.

That was a really nice setup, so I was used to Kenwood units. Unfortunately I had to get rid of it when we downsized to go full-time RVing.

I have found a local ham here through the local club who is going to help me get it cleaned up and tuned.

He has the space and test equipment that I lack.
