I have for sale or trade a 2008 model Kenwood TS2000.  This rig makes an excellent VHF/UHF weak signal rig as it does 100 watts on HF, 6m, and 2m, and 50 watts on 70cm. You can also add an optional 1.2GHZ module for 10 watts on 23cm.  It is probably one of the best roving radios I have ever seen.  I bought this radio used from Ham Radio Outlet at the beginning of June, so it has been checked out recently and found to work perfectly.  Really like it but life things come up and I need to downsize the shack a bit.

This radio has IF DSP so no optional filters are needed. It also has full duplex for the satellites, a built in TCXO, a 2m/70cm subreceiver for listening to the simplex frequencies while contesting on 6m/2m/70cm SSB, and a built in TNC.  It will also do crossband repeat so you can get on HF or 6m while walking around town with an HT-what a neat feature! 

It is in very good condition with a couple of light scratches on the top of the case (I doubt they would show up in a picture). It comes with the hand mic, power cord, and manual.  I think I still have the original box but it is missing the stryofoam inserts,
though.

I am asking $1000 for it plus shipping, but can also meet for an inperson deal in the Southwest Oklahoma/OKC/North Texas area. You will not be disappointed with this radio-it does it all and does it all
pretty well.
