Hello Barrie;

( I do not have product specific information on the KX2. )

A few comments/questions :

- Did the person selling the KX2 make any representations
   as to the radio's condition ?

- Do you know why the KX2 needed to have new finals ?
   Did the radio just suddenly cease transmitting or was
   there an associated event (static discharge, over-heating,
   etc) ?

- After the finals were replaced were any measurements
   made to confirm that the KX2 was working properly on
   all the bands with the new parts installed ?

- Are your measurements being made into a known
   good dummy load and with a good power supply ?

- Have you browsed through the owner's manual so that
   you have a general idea what the various calibration
   procedures accomplish ? I'm not suggesting that you
   try to perform any of the procedures but rather are you
   familiar with them to the extent that you have an
   awareness of what they are ?

Regards;

Paul, WB5AGF
