I did a test last night on my 803 board in a k200 to help you find out when yours is working right, and all you will need is a guitar and a rca cable.

I first set my volt meter for low AC volts and tested the output of my guitar with humbucking pickups.
I set the guitar for its neck pickup and jamed a 1st position A cord and saw on the meter a minimum of .085 volts.
I then took the RCA cable and plugged it into the 803 boards RCA drive jack/send to the pan.
I hooked the meter to the tip of the RCA cord and the meters ground probe must connect to the amps chassie, not the RCA cords ground.

I then plugged the guitar into one channel and set the reverb control to max, the volume to the third mark and both the bass and treble to half.
When I did this and jamed that same A cord I would see anywhere form .300 to .590 volts on the meter.
If you get these same results than the reverb send section of your 803 board is fine.
