Kenwood TS-820s

[W4COP]

For sale is a Kenwood TS-820s that is NOT WORKING. Explanation: I bought the radio a few months back "as is" and it did work for a short while. When receiving signal on 80m, it got real quite, then the fuse blew. I looked for reasons and finding none, I replaced the fuse. Did not blow it again. It has a faint receive hiss without signal now. Something is open or shorted? I have not tried the transmitter, tubes light up, all seems to work and it does show around 850 volts hv. I have since bought a TS-830s and no longer need the 820s. That said, I can either send it off for repair and sell it including those costs, or sell it as is and try to recoup some of my investment. The radio is in excellent cosmetic condition inside and out. No smoke. Case and front is extremely clean and no signs of damage. I've attached pictures and can answer any questions you may have. It has no mic, but has the original box in near perfect condition, copy of manual and a CD with service manual, user manual and other related info. Cost: $230 and that includes double-boxing and insured via USPS. it is an excellent radio and well worth repairing. Please e-mail me for further details/questions. Sorry this is so long. 73's Jim. calicocreekcrafts@yahoo.com

What filters does the 820S have?_____

It has both soldered-in CW and SSB. I can pull the cover and give exact models if you like. Also, I forgot to say I can take paypal and will cover the fees. Jim

I'll buy the TS-820S from you if you still have it....
Do you have both the Inner & Outer Kenwood boxes...
If you have only the Inner with the inserts could you wrap & protect the Kenwood box from damage in the shipping?____
Thanks,
