    I want to remove a Complete Kenwood TM-D700 DualBand Radio System, minus Control Head, from my inventory of stuff... I have given @Falcon15 First Right of Refusal, because he got my original TM-D700 System, few years back, and he just might want this as Backup for that Radio... If he does NOT want it, I will send it to any Monkey Ham Operator, for just the costt of shipping... I. will leave this thread here for a week, and then move it to the Buy & Sell Forum, if no takes it... Pictures available upon request... Flat Rate Shipping is about $20US, or so.....

    That's a really nice gesture . I've ben thinking of getting my Ham license , just haven't made the jump . If I had my license , I'd take you up on the offer . I'm sure it won't take long to find a home for it .(y)

    Since the system is EOL, any idea of what the control head runs these days?

    If I had to guess, since these are obsolete, in the neighborhood of a Couple of hundred bucks... The Control head for the TS-B2000 is exactly the same device, but since it is also obsolete, the TS-B2000 version is just as hard to find... You can usually find one. occasionally in a Pawn Shop, or on eBay due to the Crook stealing it from a car, but not realizing that it is just the Control Head, and not the whole Radio Systems...

    @Falcon15 says he doesn’t need the stuff, so it is available to the first Monkey Ham...

    You gotta start somewhere. Maybe if you have the 700 in hand it will incentivize you.

    He is doing fine... as a Single Fellow... Rumors are that he might be leaving Florida, and heading west... How far remains to be seen... He still runs an Internet Radio Music & Talk Show on Sundays...
