[Kenwood] TS-850 Factory Mods?

Sat, 18 Jan 2003 13:05:01 +0000

The TS-930 had several factory improvements starting with 50 Mil serial 
numbers but I don't believe the 850 was affected thus. The 850 has a couple 
of warts to be sure (DC/DC converter and VCO trimmer caps) but $$ for $$ 
still the best radio Kenwood ever  released.
