Kenwood TS-430 HF Transceiver:

The Kenwood TS-430 is an HF transceiver covering
160 thru 10 meters, including the WARC bands. It
produces about 100 watts output, and is powered by
13 V DC at about 20 amps. It is primarily a SSB
and CW transceiver, although it does support AM.

This one works fine. It hears well, although I didn't
hear much on 10 or 15 meters. On the transmit end,
it has at least 100 W output on all bands except for
160 meters where it is a tad less. Cosmetically it is
very good.

With power cord and paper work for only $335.

Kenwood MC-80 Desk Microphone:

The MC-80 is a nice goose neck type desk mic complete
with up-down switch, plus a locking and momentary PTT
switch. It can be powered by 4 AA batteries.
This one is in very nice condition. 8 pin plug.

With paper work for $65.

The Astron RS-20 A is a very common power supply around
most ham shacks. It provides 13 V DC for many ham rigs.

Fold-Back Current Limiting Protects Power Supply from
...excessive current & continuous shorted output
Crowbar Over Voltage Protection
Excellent Regulation & Low Ripple at low line input voltage.
Heavy Duty Heat Sink
Chassis Mount Fuse
Three Conductor Power Cord

Crystal Filter:
.

Kenwood YK-88 S Crystal Filter:

This is a "solder in" type filter used on rigs such as the
TS-120, TS-130, TS-430, TS-440, and others of this era.
It is 2.4 KHz wide and used for SSB.

It works 100%, and includes paper work for $55
.

.
Gap "Hear It" Speaker:

The Gap "Hear It" is a compact speaker with digital
signal processing to reduce or eliminate noise. This
speaker greatly improves signal to noise ratio and
speech clarity. It can be used for AM, FM or SSB
voice signals. This innovative product was developed
in England and is available now in the USA.

A front mounted bi-color LED lets you know when the
speaker is drawing power (red) and when it is processing
(green).

The rear panel features a control used to set the eight
levels of noise cancelling. It also has the DC input jack
for the required 12-28 VDC @500 mA. A 6 foot audio lead
is included (3.5 mm mini mono plug). This device comes
with a 4 foot fused DC power cable. Or you can purchase a
"Wall Wart" for operation from AC.

It uses a convenient "Gimble Mount".

This one works fine and looks like new.  These sell for
about $170 new.  Buy this one for only $110.
.

.
Kenwood TSU-6 CTCSS Tone Encoder/Decoder:

Many transceivers, both mobile and HTs, either have
no subaudible CTCSS PL tones in them, or they may
have an encoder only.

If you need both encode and decode, it may be that
you need the TSU-6, depending on your rig.

The TSU-6 is made to work with the TH-25, TH-45, and
TH-55 series HTs and probably others. It also works
with the TM-231, TM-701, TM-702, TM-721, TM-731 and
likely other mobile rigs.

This one works fine. Since it installs internally,
cosmetics is a non-issue.

Buy this unit for $43.

Kenwood Power Cables

Power Cable with 6 pin Molex plug on one end as used by most
HF rigs, and many others, and stripped/tinned ends on the
other end. Very good condition.  $22

Kenwood PG-2 N
This is the power cable that has a "T" connector on one end
as is used with most 2 meter, 440 MHz and dual band rigs.
This one is new, still in its original packing.
HRO sells these for $18.  Buy this one for only $13.
.

.
Linear Amp Switching Cables for Kenwood Rigs:

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.
$20
