Recommended Kenwood Service Center/Repair Shop for TM-D700A
|
I think I need to send my Kenwood TM-D700A in for service, as I'm getting lower than rated output on both VHF (max of 35-40 watts) and UHF (max 10 watts) on the "High" power output setting.
I suspect, given the age of the unit (bought new about 15-16 years ago) the PA output transistors may be getting a bit "soft" or there's another issue. All my HF gear is ICOM, and I definitely know what shop to send my ICOM gear to, but I haven't a clue as to the "Good, Bad, and the Ugly" when it comes to Kenwood shops. Any recommendations for repairs on the Kenwood TM-D700A? (Or, conversely, shops to avoid, in which case feel free to contact me off-line at K4AEC@...). Thanks in advance. Larry J. Ford K4AEC

He's done me right many times in the past, although I've not used him recently. Suggest you call him first with your issue. N5ZUA

Larry,
I have used Kenwood's authorized service center in Virginia Beach, VA with good results. A couple of times. They have a few service centers but i have experience with only this one location. Good luck. Rick KR3LC
