Subject: “ The Kenwood TS-430V “ 「10w ケンウッド TS-430V」


My main radio shack is located in the basement and in mid March, as we had heavy rain storm, it was flooded. Therefore, I could not use the shack and could not go on air. I use my old Kenwood TS-430V, QRP 10w rig set up in my bed room so that I go on air until the basement is repaired.
The TS-430V was manufactured and sold in 1980s so it is about 30 years old. The TS-430V has a power of max 10watts from 160m to 30m bands. The beauty of this rig is that the power can be set from 0 to 10watts at any level you want. It is a nice QRP transceiver. Since it was sold in Japan only as a novice rig, it was not available in the north American market. Please click the URL below for the information.

In Japanese:
「10w ケンウッド TS-430V」
1980年代に日本で発売になった「ケンウッド TS-430V」を私の寝室にセットしてあり、CONDXをみて、DXや北米大陸の太平洋岸の局やカリビアンの局とQRP QSOを楽しんでいます。 本年3月に激しい雨のため、ベースメントにあるシャックに水が入り、シャックは修理のため使えなくなりました。
修理が出来上がるのは6月中旬か、下旬となる予定で当分TS-430Vでオンエアーします。
