KENWOOD TS-520S
This is my first 'HAM-Rig' in about 1990 - 1992. Modified the 10-Meter band sections with 3 new master crystals to get it on 26.000 - 26.500, 27.000 - 27.500 and 27.500 - 28.100. The rig worked 100% fine with exelent RX and TX audio. Made 100W output on SSB (Specialy Tuned on 11-Meter) No need for external PA with this one. Worked ower 1000 QSO's with the rig. Owned one more a couple of years later. Worked also just fine!.

My next 'Free-Band' Rig was an 'ICOM IC-751A'
