I owned and used an 830 for years and liked it a lot. I have used a
751 once and again and I have never liked it. I can't remember why.
It just didn't sound as good.
When I lived in Austin, our TCC director (K5GM) lived two blocks away and
used to comment that he experienced front-end smash whenever I was on the
air. He had a 751A. I could never tell when he was on. I had an 830.
Call it idiosyncratic. If I were looking to upgrade from an 830, I would
look for a late-model 930.
