[Kenwood] TS-570S(G)

Sat, 11 May 2002 16:47:38 -0500

The variable NB in the 830S is the best I have come across. Never had the
good fortune to try a 950 though! The worst in any rig I have come across is
in my IC-718....I sometimes wonder if they mislabelled it "NB" when it was
meant to be "no function" !!!

73,
Ron
