TS-570 repair Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I shipped my 20 year old Kenwood on Monday, Paul started locating parts then.
He received the radio on Friday, & Sunday night I got an email saying Steve had repaired the radio, & it was ready to ship!!!
I got the radio the following Saturday.
Its's like having a new radio again.
Incredibly good service.

Ts-2000 Repair Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Had a TS-2000 repaired. Bad control board was replaced, radio was aligned and firmware upgrades applied. Also had backlighting replaced with Blue LEDs. Great service, fast turnaround, knowledgeable staff and fair pricing. All in all very highly recommended

Kenwood TS-450s Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I purchased this radio at a hamfest a couple of months ago. Unfortunately, the radio was not up to par. One of our club members mentioned Jahnke Electronics and highly recommended them. The following week, I took my Kenwood TS-450s on a road trip to Green Bay and dropped it off for repair. I was expecting 3 to 4 or more weeks to get it back. To my surprise, Paul contacted me and said that it was ready to pick up 6 days later. I can't thank Paul and Steve enough for this speedy repair. It works as new as it should!

A terrific job!

Kenwood TS440S Dot Problem FIXED!!! Beyond Pleased !!! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I bought the rig new in 1987. I am not the most active Ham. The rig developed the Famous Dot Problem several years ago. I had a few local people look at it. Found Jahnke Electronics via googling the problem. I sent the rig in to them. Got it back 2 weeks later. I am beyond pleased with the work they have done, they also gave it the once over, replacing ( Meter Bulb with LED, Replace Memory Battery, Replace Keypad, Clean, lube controls, and Align and Calibrate to spec). Radio has not received this well since it was new. Thank you.

FANTASTIC Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I sent Jahnke Electronics my Kenwood TS-2000 for the blue led upgrade, alignment, calibration, firmware update, etc. The radio was returned to me in better than brand new condition and with a written report of test data from bench testing. They even performed on air tests with the radio and received excellent reports. Communication with Paul Jahnke could not be easier or better. These guys are true Pros when it comes to Kenwood repair. It just doesn't come any better. If you need any type of repair or modifications to Kenwood gear, I strongly recommend them. Pricing is very reasonable and the service is top notch.

Excellent Shop!!!!! Time Owned: N.A.
Kenwood TS-870 antenna tuner problem, metal on metal. I've used Avvid in the past but Clif has retired. Based on reviews here emailed Jahnke. Answer came immediately. Shipped radio and they turned it around in three days. They also cleaned controls with Deoxit and aligned it. Work ticket also noted the radio was tested on air and performance measurements across the HF bands were included. Communication excellent. Its hard to find businesses that are so thorough and professional.

Outstanding Repair Service Time Owned: N.A.
Brought Paul and Steve my Kenwood TL-922A amplifier. It was old and tired and in need of a refurbish/rebuild. They did a great job and now I am seeing 1400 to 1500 watts (depending on band) at 100 watts of drive.
I just brought my Dentron 160-10L amp to them and am sure they will do and excellent job.

Excellent Repair sevice Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Paul and steve took in my ts-50 Kenwood and did a wonderful job on the repair. It must have taken a lightening strike at some time to take out the PA. They replaced the PA and filter board with a good ones,fixed a bad readout and replaced the memory battery. Also a capacitor pack and resisters, as well an alignment. It is said that knowledge is power. Jahnke electronics Know their Kenwoods! Had my ts-50 since they came out thru 2014 on the road the whole time until I retired. Happy to have it back good as new.

Great Service!!! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Another 5 stars for Paul and Steve! I found Jahnke Electronics here on eHam, contacted them and sent my Kenwood TS-850SAT for recap and repair of the tuner. I had the radio back in just a little over 2 weeks including travel time and it plays great! All the work was done professionally and reasonably priced, with several little touches like replacing a missing foot and tightening the tuning knob (my request). Thank you guys I know where to go next time!
