 You might want to read thru this link. Lot of good info and references some digikey part numbers that may help out. The 746 pro needs to go away!!!!

Art,
You might check Johnke Electronics in Green Bay.  They work a lot on
TS850, and seem to be  kenwood shop.
So they might be worth taking a look.
BTW, we are close neighbors.  Moved to Carol Stream last summer.
Good luck with your search.  That is too good a rig to trash.
