Wow...TS-830S.  Tube rigs are quickly becoming a thing of the past.

I always was very comfortable with the TS-930S with CW filters and the auto tuner.  Excellent performing radio and readily available for less than $1000 these days.

I am looking to upgrade my radio for contesting from the TS-830S I 
currently have.  Most important to me right now is a receiver that 
will hold its own around strong signals, although there are probably 
other factors I should consider too.

I have a budget of around $1000, so I'll be looking for used rigs. 
What radio would you recommend, and why?  What criteria should I use 
in deciding on a radio?
