Default FS Kenwood Marine/HF Transceiver

I have a Kenwood TKM-707 Transceiver that is brand new in the box. It has
the amateur radio mods performed by the dealer. These modifications are very
simple and easy to change back to the original factory specifications. They
allow the TKM-707 to transmit from the "VFO" dial as well as from memory and
allow lower side band as well as upper side band operation. This makes for a
versatile transceiver useful for the ham operator as well as the marine
operator. Documentation of the modifications performed is included.

The TKM-707 is a high performance SSB radio telephone transceiver designed
to meet the stringent demands of the marine market, both in quality and
ruggedness. This transceiver utilizes a heavy-duty rust-proof aluminum
chassis and the highest quality parts to maximize performance. Output power
is 150 watts. It has 198 memories, a large efficient cooling system and dual
mode noise blankers. It transmits from 2 MHz to 23 MHz, and it receives
general coverage shortwave frequencies from 500 KHz to 30 MHz. It meets all
US coast guard requirements for commercial vessels. Price is $750. They
retail for $1499. AES is running a sale on they for $1249.
