You lucky man. I never seem to run into Kenwood R5000s for $45 at my local
junk stores!

Hi I am a long time lurker here, about 6 yrs. I just picked this radio
up at an antique/junk shop for $45. It has way more dodads than my old
Halicrafters Sky Champion. I cant seem to get the fm/vhf to come on. the
freq, display stays in hf mode. If you push the vhf button, it reads vhf
freqs and beeps for a second, then goes right back to shortwave. Am I
doing something wrong or is the radio defective in vhf mode. I didn't
get a manual with it so I'm flying blind playing with this radio. Any
help would be helpfull. Thankyou in advance. Dan
