The gold paint is the only difference. -------- Original Message -------- ==> From: YASH at aol.com ==> Date: 2004年7月25日 14:43:10 -0400 Hi to all. Have a quick question. What is a "gold" ts-830s? Those who have them seem to think thay are worth 100's over a non "gold" 830s. I looked at one today,only thing I saw was a gold tinted kenwood label. The specs all looked the same....Is there something that Iam missing here or is this like the round and winged collins gear thing? 73's dale k8peo _______________________________________________ Kenwood mailing list Kenwood at mailman.qth.net http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/kenwood Help: http://mailman.qth.net/subscribers.htm .
