A local ham here has two radios for sale. A Kenwood TS-850SAT and a Icom IC-756 non pro. The 756 is the original model before the Pro.
Out of these two radio which one would be a better radio? What are some opinions on both of these. I know they are both older rigs and both have their downfalls.
The TS-850 was serviced a few years back by Kenwood Service Center East for leaky Caps on the CAR board and some other upgrades to.
The IC-756 has very low hours and is very clean. He bought it brand new in 2000. It has never had a problem.
Im just looking for some opinions & first hand experience with these rigs!
Thanks!
