100% looks and ability, 99% features never used more than once.. and imagine if it needed a repair? "This way sir, care for wine and cheese on the veranda? Your radio shall be ready in an hour. First we have a credit check to run and some collateral to put up before we open it..., our rate is $200/hr.."

Holy Jumpin' Jelly Beans Batman!!! I think that's the radio of all radio's. Maybe not but very good looking piece of equipment. I bet the $8,000 price tag is right too!! Who needs a house? Sell it, live in a cheesebox and transmit with that baby!!! I'll stay in the house!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.gigaparts.com/parts/radioinfo/images/radioShots/ts-0000.jpg

and heres the info

Kenwood debuted its latest mobile HF prototype at the Dayton Hamvention. This rig is capable of 200watts on HF and 100watts on 6 meters. A large alphanumeric LCD is accompanied by a large tuning knob and plenty of control buttons on a detached face plate. Expect to see this radio in the market place by early 2004.

Looks like Kenwood finally bit at the FT-100D and the IC-706 mobiles. I used a friend's 706MKII G for a while. It is a sweet rig. If you want any talk power on a ham rig for AM, get an Icom. That 706 would key 40 watts and swing 130. Every yeasu I've heard on am you have to squint your ears to make anything out, NO MODULATION, and I haven't heard any kenwood's on am.

I love this part of Universals description...

"Icom is projecting delivery for December 2003. A price has not been announced (... but it will likely be grounds for divorce). "

Forgot to add a few things......sorry boyz....

CM 3885----Don't forget to stock your fridge with plenty of Rolo's, M & M's, jelly beans, candy bars, plenty of pop and milk ;0)! Hey and don't forget to put your shack next to the lake so you can get your fishing in while you are talking on that!!!


Man, I sure do feel sorry for the women that have the men that have that big booger!!!.........lol Yeah, grounds for divorce is right, some women wouldn't be understanding, but I know that my boyfriends radios are just as important as me ;)!!!! In fact, he loves his radios so much, that I'm not allowed to touch them........lol!! Go figure......hehehehe.
