The Kenwood TH-235A Two meter HT has a large easy-to-read
LCD, 60 channel memories with scanning and ten DTMF
memories. Extended receive is 136-174 MHz so it includes
the weather frequencies. When used on external DC power
you will get a full 5 watts output. With the included
PB36 battery pack, it produces 1.5 watts. The low power
setting is 0.5 watts.

Backlit LCD Display

This particular unit works 100% and looks like it just came
out of the box new. It came from a silent key who I don't
think ever used it. This one includes the desk charger,
rubber duck antenna, belt clip, and paper work for $110.
I added a new PB-36 battery, as the old one had been in
the drawer long enough that it is not in good condition.

Deluxe Desk Microphone w/ Kenwood 8 pin connector:

This is a great looking and great performing low impedance
desk mic. It has a quality Shure 600 ohm cartridge in it
(the cartridge alone is over $40 new), with a very nice
black die case base and neck, with a chrome grill. It
looks somewhat like a Shure 444, but no plastic on this
one -- all metal!

This one looks like new, and works the same. It has a
long (approx 6 foot) cord, with a round 8 pin connector
for Kenwood. $75


Kenwood Hand Microphone with round 8 pin plug:

This hand mic works great on most Kenwood rigs with the
round 8 pin connector, such as the TS-430, TS-440, TS-570,
TM-241, TM-2530, TW-4000, and others.
It only says "Electret Condenser Mic" on it, with no
model number.

Basically, this mic is like an MC-43, only with a couple
more features. Of course it has the mic and PTT switch;
it also has up/down switches on the top. There are four
"extra" buttons labeled Call, VFO, MR, and PF. What these
four buttons do depends on the rig that it is attached to.
They will function on some rigs, and are completely useless
on others. There is also a "Lock" switch on the back.

Regardless if you use the four extra buttons or not, you
still have a mic that works like an MC-43.

This mic works fine, and looks like new. I am guessing it
came with a rig, and was immediately put in the drawer. $30


Hand Microphone with 8 pin modular plug for Kenwood:

This hand mic says "Electret Condenser Mic" on it, with no
model number.

This mic has the mic and PTT switch; it also has
up/down switches on the top. There are four "extra" buttons
labeled Call, VFO, MR, and PF. What these four buttons do
depends on the rig. They will function on some rigs, and
are completely useless on others. There is also a "Lock"
switch on the back.

This mic has the 8 pin modular plug (like a computer LAN)
on it, as used by the Kenwood TM-261, TM-271 and others.
It has been tested on a TM-261, but probably works on
many others.

This mic works fine, and looks like new. I am guessing it
came with a rig, and was immediately put in the drawer. $30


Coaxial Cable "Jumpers" for your shack:

I have a good quantity of coaxial cable "jumpers" available.
These are short lengths of RG-8 coax, with a PL-259 connector
on both ends. I have a variety of lengths from under a foot
to about 5 feet long. Send me the lengths that you would
like, and I will see how close I can come.

Although most are RG-8 (the larger, approximately 0.4 inch
coax that takes full legal power), I also have some that
are RG-8 X (the medium coax approximately 1/4 inch in
diameter). Please ask for RG-8 X, if that is what you
would like.

All jumpers are $6 each.


Coaxial Lightning Arrestors:

These lightning arrestors are made to be inserted in to
your coaxial feedline, to help reduce lightning damage.

Cushcraft LAC-2
Still in the original blister pack, unused.
This one has an SO-239 (female UHF) connector on each end,
so that a PL-259 can be screwed into it. $15

Cushcraft LAC-1
No markings on this to confirm the model number, but it
looks like the Cushcraft "Blitz Bug".
It has an SO-239 on one end and a PL-259 on the other end
(female UHF on one end and male on the other). $10


High Power HF 1 to 1 Balun:

This is Palomar's very high power 1 to 1 HF balun. I am
not sure if it is rated at 3000 watts or 5000 watts, but
it is the big one. It is 4 inches in diameter and about
3 1/2 inches high. It has an SO-239 connector on the
bottom, that has a gold plated center pin, and silver
plated outer. It has "pigtails" coming out of the top
to connect to your balanced antenna.

It is designed so that it can easily be used with a beam.
It has a bracket from each side, and then a U bolt that
can attach to up to a 2 1/2 inch diameter mast or boom.
All hardware is stainless steel. This is a quality balun!

This one works fine and looks fine. $60


Linear Amp Switching Cable for Kenwood Rigs:

This cable goes from a Kenwood transceiver to a
linear amplifier to switch the amp from transmit
to receive.

One end has a DIN connector, as is used with most
Kenwood rigs. The other end has an RCA phono plug,
as used by most linear amplifiers.

Before using this cable, please check the switching
capabilities of your transceiver.

This cable has one coax for switching the relay. $15


Operator's Manual for Kenwood (Trio) TS-440 S:

This is a quality reproduction with a "comb" binding
that has been done by one of the professional reproduction
houses. W7FG I think.

This one has a plastic protector on the front, and is
in very nice condition. It includes schematic diagrams.
$18
