Lee,
I bought a Kenwood TS-940Sat brand new, with all the goodies and filters in
1988.
That radio has earned 32 1st place certs in CW and RTTY contesting. I think
that
is pretty amazing service to say the least.
Presently, it is starting to give me problems with intermittent transmit.
Suddenly the
output power will drop to a few watts. all unexpectedly. I must power the
radio
quickly off, then back on, and it will continue to operate norrmally any where
from
a half and hour to all night. Occassionally the CW pitch will change on its
own.
My point is this. My TS-940 is getting tired. The TS-930 is one generation
older.
I would look for a newer radio if you can afford it. My two cents.
