[CW] TS-830s ?

[Jim Wilson]

The 200 ma. seems a little low, but not knowing what the swr is it may be 
ok.  Regarding the 500 Hz. filter:  I have had two 830's, one with the 
narrow filter and one without.  I sold the one with the filter because I 
found that using the variable passband feature and the passband shift it 
was very adequate. I cannot be more specific as I am not now at the qth 
where the 830 and manual is located.
