[ETSList] Kenwood TS-570 & TS-2000

[John Chevalaz]

Dear Drew,
Thanks for taking the time to post the interesting
articles on Ham radio. Its the only contact I still
have with the hobby. The email that hade the site with
the adio of the various transmissions was of interest
to several of the guys at work.

I hav a quetsion for u. I have a Kenwood 751A 144mhz
all mode rig. Bill Koeth had one at one time. I have
everything associated with it. I never use it. Of all
the rigs I have that one has been used the least and
has very little chance of ever being used again. The
other rigs will get fired up again, but what am I
going to do with an all mode rig when I have an HT and
a 2 meter mobile rig. Would u know what something like
that would go for and if u know anyone interested in
it. I rmrmber it went for 550. or there abouts. I
realise I'll never get that back. What evever input u
could offer would be appreciated. I usually just give
stuff away but this time I'd like to seel it cuz its
still good and was soo expensive. What do u think ?
Hey how about we trade the rig for that hotrod Impala?
Do u still have it? That car is sweet. Not obtrusive
but still extremely cool. Thats the best statement to
make with a car.
