Ad Number:	1754737
Date Placed:	01/04/26
Name:	Jon Kaplan
Phone Number:	E-MAIL+ONLY
Callsign:	KA1API
Category:	RADIOHF
Heading:	Kenwood TS-820S VFO-820 and Microphone
Ad Message:	Kenwood TS-820S Hybrid HF Rig and matching VFO-820 with the cable, and a desk Microphone in working condition. I made about 200 QSOs on the ARRL DX Phone Contest in 2025 and made a few 20 meter QSOs today. The VFO-820 works but it could use a cleaning as it doesn't tune as nicely as the VFO on the rig. The rig is nice. The noise blanker switch seems to be inoperable. I am asking $275 for the whole setup. This is local pickup in the Greater Boston area only due to the weight.

Your Response to this Ad:

Due to the amount of non-ham scammers trying to respond to the ads, I am now asking a simple question that ham operators should easily be able to answer, but scammers may not know the answer: What is the number that hams use to represent the phrase "Best Regards"? This number is typically transmitted by hams at the end of a QSO.
Best Regards:
