Kenwood HF transceivers for sale:

Kenwood TS-180 HF transceiver
This rig covers 160 thru 10 meters.  It can include the
WARC bands with a "kit", but this one does not.  It is
all solid state, with digital readout, and is a terrific rig.
This one has the DFC in it, and works great.  It includes
the extra SSB filter which does two things.  It improves
the receive with sharper bandwidth, but it also enables
use of an extremely effective RF speech processor that
is much better than the processor in most of the newer 
rigs. The added "punch" is almost like adding a linear
amplifier.  This one looks almost like new.  It includes
the power cord, and the paper work for $275.

Kenwood TS-120 HF transceiver
This is an 80 thru 10 meter rig solid state CW and SSB
rig with digital readout.  It is relatively small, so can be 
used mobile.  It is your basic "work horse" rig.  It works
well, and does a nice job, but does not have a lot of extra
bells and whistles on it to complicate its use.  This one is
in nice shape, and includes the power cord and paper
work for $195.

Small Kenwood hand microphone
This is like the small hand mic that came with the
Kenwood TR-7400.  It has the standard 4 pin plug
wired for Kenwood., and is a 500 ohm dynamic mic.
It can be used on an HF rig, or a VHF or UHF rig.
No model number on it, but it looks close to new, 
and works fine.  If you like a smaller mic, compared
to the MC-35 or MC-30, this is it.  $30 

I have a cable that is used to go between a Kenwood 
transceiver, and a linear amplifier, to switch the amp 
from transmit to receive.  One end has a DIN connector 
on it, as is used with most Kenwood rigs.  The other end 
has an RCA phono plug on it, as used by most linear 
amplifiers.  Before using this cable, please check to be 
certain that the voltages and currents needed by your 
amplifier match the switching capabilities of your transceiver.  
This cable has a coax between the rig and amp to provide 
the relay control.  $12

Prices do not include shipping from Florida.

Thanks.
