[Kenwood] HF Xcvr, PS, Mobile bracket, cables and more FS

[Ken, W8EK]

They certainly did not make a mobile mount for a TS-940.  That would 
be almost impossible to run mobile, since it is so huge, and does not 
use a 13 V DC power supply.

As I said in the original posting "The Kenwood MB-430 is the mobile 
bracket
that is used to mount the Kenwood TS-430,
TS-440, TS-450, R-5000 and maybe others."

Thanks.

73,

Ken, W8EK
