Sending raw feces through the postal service is a federal offense, and in today's political/social climate, could be considered a terroristic act,

I could hear the Cali ham but not the ham closest to me.

From what I understand, this is because of skip.

Sorry, but you are essentially re-inventing the wheel.

Hams have used multiconductor cable, like flat rotor control cable with the wires cut to different lengths as radials for years.  It works!

No one missed me, I am sure of that, but how many
others are out there that feel the way I do, and are skipping the
festivities because of a few idiots.

he was screaming as loud as he could AND speaking fast,
V E R Y fast, like a gatling gun or Thompson Machine gun with
a 1,000,000 round magazine. I couldn't understand crap.

Hello and thank you for your interest in the Kenwood ts-940s.
 
You make a point regarding the "silver label"" and I have replace one of the pictures with a picture of the "silver label" which also shows the California sticker and shows it was assembled in California, which I clearly point out in my description. I think someone else may have the same thought. In addition I would like to update your information regarding the 940s radios. The units assembled at some period after the SN# I have listed, were changed to have serial numbers in the 20 million range. I have obtained and sold four or five of these radios and the radio I have listed is one I purchased in 2011 and used it as my "reference" unit when I checked radios using actual received signals and QSO's.

In regard to the options, you are correct, only two CW filters can be installing and Kenwood offers three CW filters. The 455.0 kHz CW filter are either standard or narrow. My reference to "Loaded" was meant to mean the radio has all of the standard options installed and in the case the standard 455.0 kHz was used in place of the narrow filter.
 
The 940s radios with the “silver label” with all of the options installed are rare and command a higher price. These radios have all the modifications and are truly the end of a great radio.
 
I stand behind the radio’s I offer on Ebay, and I believe I am the only seller that will refund the full purchase price including return shipping charges I the buyer is not satisfied with the radio for any reason.
 
Thank you for you interest

It should be noted on the 746 meter, it shows near
perfect 1:1 on the SWR meter when I Tx. 

the Kenwood radio is serial number 00500387 is on a silver label. The silver labels are on the TS-940s radio assembled in California after production was discontinued in Japan and ended with a 10 million serial number range. The remaining components were sent to California and assembled as completed TS-940s radios. The normal Brown & Silver labels were replaced with a silver label with a low serial number as this radio has. This was soon changed to a 20 million serial number range and used until all the components were exhausted [/i]
