Thanks to all for the reponses to my question about a power supply 
recommendation for the Kenwood TS2000.

Here is a summary of the responses:

Using Astron RS35M-three (note: under a load,the transistors on the back get 
hot, so supply good ventilation, and you may want to consider a temp 
triggered fan. I have one of these and it "hums" annoyingly)
Using Astron SS30-one
Using Astron RS35A-one
Using Samlex Sec 1223-one (this supply came highly recommended by several 
other people I talked with, and not exclusively for the price)
Using Alinco DM330MVT-one
Using MFJ 4035MV-one
Using Duracomm 45A-one
Everyone suggested getting a larger than 20.5 amp supply. 25 amps seems to 
be the minimum. If you get a larger "heftier" supply, you can use it to 
power other items in your station.
One other comment I feel I should share because it seems to be sound advice. 
One person suggested waiting until after the Dayton Hamvention in May to see 
what new items might be unveiled.  There could be something better in the 
wings.
Thanks again for the suggestions and recommendations.
Scott
