Many contesters and DXers have recommended the TS-850 to me as one of the
best deals in its price range, so I bought one a couple months ago. I've
been more than happy with it so far. The receiver is outstanding.
To me, any radio that has no tubes in it is not "stone age". :-) I grew
up contesting with S-lines, Heathkits, Drake R4B/T4XB, etc. With those,
even if you didn't get the "warm glow of victory", you at least had the
warm glow of the rigs!

Hi!
I will be staying in Copenhagen next week from 3rd to the 6th of September.
If there are any Danish contesters it would be nice to have an eye ball QSO.
Best 73,
