[Kenwood] First rig with tuner

[John Geiger]

Think that must have been the TS440.  I had a TS430 a few years ago (great
rig) but there was no provision for an inboard tuner.  They did offer the
AT-250 as an external autotuner.

FT767.  The homepage for the list said that it was the first amateur rig
with a built in autotuner.  Is that correct?  I didn't think it was, I
though the first rig with a built in autotuner was the Kenwood TS930SAT.
