New extra transceiver for the JOTA

Real radios glow in the dark.
Hi fellow radionauts,

I bought a second hand HF transceiver last week. Its a Kenwood TS-520.
The TS-520 is 40 years old and has 5 bands, 10, 15, 20, 40 and 80 metres. It is in perfect condition. It will be used as a second transceiver for the JOTA that takes place in one week time.
The TS-520 has valves and no modern electronics so if it fails it can be repaired without too many problems.
