This Kenwood TS-830S HF Ham Band Transceiver, covers 10 to 160 Meters with WARC Bands.

It is in Very Good Cosmetic Condition and is S/N 2020290.

 Other than a few small marks, it looks very nice. 

This Transceiver receives very well. 

I tested this transceiver on the air and it puts out around 100 watts on the bands Tested.

  As with most vintage gear, it may be improved with an alignment or Tube replacement.

A non Kenwood hand microphone is included as well as a copy of the manual.

 I am selling this HF rig as is, as described, for a friend.

This item is part of Bill Shadid's collection (W9MXQ)   Bill has been collecting fine vintage gear for many years, always looking for the cleanest and nicest of each model. 

 He has decided to sell some of the gear to free up more room, (Hopefully for more Gear!)  Bill writes articles about vintage Amateur radio gear and is an excellent Technician.

 All his gear has been recently tested and checked for functionality before being delivered to me, to offer on my website.
