I acquired one of these from my brother in law. Great radio, has its quirks, but a good radio. Need to clean up the wafer switches as I have trouble from time to time getting it to tune up on some of the bands. May also replace the caps. Great video, very informative!
Could you start using a tripod? I have trouble with the picture waving around. Thanks. Nice video, Just got a TS-830S, can't wait to get it on the air.
@RC-nq7mg I'll be! I've never had trouble looking someone up in one of the usual databases. I've looked up many foreign calls, too. 73's. I like your videos on the TS-830s as I used to have one. I know a guy that is selling one week after next. If he isn't outrageously overpriced, I might pick his up. He has most if not all the accessories like the tuner, vfo, and speaker too.

Can you please tell me what is needed to have a computer monitor with that beautiful display of the band on my Yaesu FT-897D?
What is your call now. VE4BDE can't be found any more
That is still my call I have never changed it.
So weird, I looked you up on ARRL & FCC and it can't find VE4BDE. Do I have it right? Victor Echo Four Bravo Delta Echo
I looked mine up and it finds me. N7BUD
@@wwjeepdaddy I was never an ARRL member and licenced under CRTC in Canada, call comes up on CRTC search.
