I have two Kenwood TS-700 A, 2 meter Multimode
transceivers for sale.

The Kenwood TS-700A multimode transceiver provides 2 meter
operation in FM, LSB, USB, AM and CW modes. Power output is
rated at 10 watts. It covers the entire 2 meter band.
Enhancements include RF gain, RIT, squelch, noise blanker and
44 fixed channels (11 per MHz band). Operation is from 120/220
VAC, or 13.8 VDC at 4 amps.

Features:
Multi-Mode
RIT
Noise Blanker
On-Air Indicator
Squelch
AC/DC Operation


I have two units available.

The first looks very nice. The front is really great.
All bulbs light, and the VFO is smooth. It produces from 11 to
12 W out. However, it only transmits in FM and USB. There is no
power out in LSB or AM. Of course FM and USB is about all that
is normally used on 2 meters, so it may not matter.

The second unit looks good, but not as nice as the first one.
It transmits in all modes, but I am 90% sure someone took a
"golden screwdriver" to it.  The power output is in the 18 to
20 watt range instead of 11 to 12 as it should be.  This
indicates some one has "tweaked" it.  The frequency that it
transmits and receives on is not the same as indicated.
Basically, I think it needs a complete, accurate alignment,
and then it would be great.


Buy either one with paper work and 110 V AC power cord for
$150 each. The DC power cord is not included.
Buy both of them for $275.


I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, connectors, miscellaneous accessories,
etc.
Just too many to list here. Please e-mail your requests.

Prices do not include shipping from Florida.

Thanks.
