Kenwood TS-450 S AT, HF Transceiver:

The Kenwood TS-450 is a formidable transceiver covering 160
through 10 meters including the WARC bands with 100 watts
(40W AM). An internal automatic antenna tuner is included.
The TS-450 supports many advanced features such as keypad
entry, VOX, 100 memories, XIT, RIT, Notch, IF Shift, Squelch
and digital meter. It requires 13.8 V DC at 20.5 amps.

Features:
160-10 meters
AF Notch
CW Reverse
100 Memories
Dual Mode NB
XIT/RIT
IF Shift
Keypad Entry
All Mode Squelch
RF Speech Processor

This particular rig works 100% as best I can tell.
Cosmetically, it is good.

With mic, power cord, and paper work for $450.


Kenwood Crystal Filters:

Kenwood YK-88 S 1 Crystal Filter:
This filter is 2400 Hz wide.
This is a "plug in filter" as opposed to the type that must
be soldered in. It is used in rigs such as the TS-450, TS-570,
TS-690, TS-850, TS-930, TS-940, TS-950, and others.
It is for the 8.83 MHz IF.
It works fine and looks like new.
Paperwork is included for $75.

Kenwood YK-88 SN
This is the "solder in" type filter that is used in the TS-130,
TS-430, TS-440, TS-530, TS-830, R-5000, and many others.
It is 1800 Hz wide making it ideal for narrow SSB, but also
for digital modes. It works fine and looks like new. $70


DC Power Cable:
This is the heavy duty power cable as used on most of the
Kenwood HF rigs, plus also many Icom, Alinco, and others.
It has the 6 pin molex connector, with four pins used - two
for plus and two for ground.  It looks good, and of course
works fine. $22


Cable for T/R switching if linear amplifiers:

This cable goes from a Kenwood transceiver to a linear
amplifier to switch the amp from transmit to receive.

One end has a DIN connector, as is used with most Kenwood
rigs. The other end has an RCA phono plug, as used by most
linear amplifiers.

Before using this cable, please check the switching
capabilities of your transceiver, and the requirements
of your amplifier.

Cable for switching the T/R relay. Only $15.

Cable as above, but with ALC line in addition to T/R switching.
$22


Kenwood MC-85 Deluxe Desk Microphone:

The Kenwood MC-85 is a deluxe unidirectional electret
condenser desk mic. In addition to it being a microphone,
it features UP-DOWN tuning for compatible Kenwood
transceivers. It also has built-in audio level compensation,
preamp and a level meter.

It can be used with up to three different rigs. This one has
one 8 pin mic cable.

This mic requires power that is derived from most Kenwood
rigs that use the round 8 pin connector. For other models,
you will need to install four AA cells (not supplied).

This 700 ohm mic has a 300 to 7000 Hz response.

This particular mic works fine and looks like it just came out
of its box new. No defects.

Paper work is included for $100.


Extra Cables for MC-85 Microphones:

With 4 pin plug, such as used on TS-130 and others. $20

With round 8 pin plug, as used on TS-430 and others. $20


MC-85 desk mic as above, but "Tech Special"
It looks like the silent key was working on repair of this when
he passed.  All parts appear to be present, plus the addition
of a couple extra up/down switches.  $45


Hand Microphone with round 8 pin plug for Kenwood, Alinco, etc.

This hand mic works great on most Kenwood rigs with the
round 8 pin connector, such as the TS-430, TS-440, TM-241,
TM-2530, TW-4000, and others, including Alinco and ADI.
It says "Electret Condenser Mic" on the back, and
"Kenwood" on the front, with no model number.

Basically, this mic functions like an MC-43, with a couple
more features. It has the mic and PTT switch; it also has
up/down switches on the top. There are four "extra" buttons
labeled Call, VFO, MR, and PF. What these four buttons do
depends on the rig. There is also a "Lock" switch on the back.

Regardless if you use the four extra buttons or not, you
still have a mic that works like an MC-43.

This mic works fine, and looks like new. I am guessing it
came with a rig, and was immediately put in the drawer,
and never used. $30
