One thing that maybe the trouble is the battery for the memory could be
gone. Just replace the battery and try resetting the memory. It should only
cost you about $10.00 for the battery or less and some elbow grease. You can
get the manuals at http://www.mods.dk/view.php?ListManuals=kenwood . I do
know other people who have had the radio and in working order it is a damn
good radio. New it sold for between $500.00 and $1000.00 depending on
country. Find a local Ham and see if they want to try to get it working for
the price of parts.
