Hi
I currently have an old Frog, but it was accidentally dropped the other day
( thanks grandson). and is beyond repair.
I have the opportunity to buying either
Kenwood R-2000


Get an R-2000 - And if you look out for the VHF COnverter as well -
thats even better (some 2nd hand ones may have the VC-10 in it!) -
You'll get 118-174mHz as well

I had one but part ex'd for an R-75 (couldn't have afforded the 75
without it - and no one was going to seriously part ex a pana RF-B45 for
it) - but now regret it - sure the 75 is better, but there wa a build
quality and features of the 2K which i miss. I've yet to see my R-75
illuminate the room in the same way the r-2k did when it was powered.

Plus it had variable attenuator (the 75 is one-step) real moving coil
meter! (woohoo!) and it was a doddle to operate!
