[Kenwood] TM-231A 2m mobile

[Mike Rhodes]

Jonathan,
  I'm not sure it would be worth the bench charge to get these radios 
checked out unless you can find someone with the appropriate equipment 
and knowledge who will do it for fun. Just did a quick check and the 
first place I looked had the TM-271 for $150. With bench time somewhere 
north of $50 an hour it won't take long to equal the price of a 
state-of-the-art replacement (or two).
