TS 790A repair Time Owned: more than 12 months.
My TS790 was damaged in a drop that made some controls non-functional. Even though parts were out of production Steve and Paul agreed to work on the rig. The rig came back better than new. I couldn't have been more pleased with their efforts. Highly Recommend!

Kenwood TS-50s Repair Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Very happy with the repair done by Paul on my TS-50S. When powered up, the XCVR would screech and scream. Could do nothing! Contacted Jahnke, got quick reply and assurances that it would be on the bench within a couple of days after the rig arrived. Shipped it out the next day. Eleven days later it arrived back to my doorstep. Powered it up. It worked great with a new Q2 switching transistor, new caps to,replace the weak ones, fresh alignment with band results tested and new memory battery. Works great now with CAT control.

Great communication, professional service and expertise! Highly recommend!

Thanks, Paul, and Jahnke Electronics! De Rick, WB3 B I Q.

Another 440 Dot Repair Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I found Jahnke Electronics here on the eHam review. Just sent out my TS-440 to fix the dot problem. I had the parts to fix but not the time.

Paul and his crew did a great job! The 440 came back via UPS very well packaged and is working fine. Dot problem fixed, a new memory battery, LED replacement for the meter bulb and an alignment.

Qucik turn-around even though I indicated the 440 is my backup rig and I was in no rush.

Highly recommend Jahnke for your Kenwood repairs.

TS 440s Dot Repair Time Owned: more than 12 months.
So glad I found Paul and Steve from Jahnke Electronics. Very fair pricing to fix the dot issue, key bounce, new LED meter light and alignment. Very quick turnaround, and a totally happy ham on this end! They will get all of my Kenwood business fron now on. A shop that knows what they're doing, and great customer service and communications!

Superb service! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
My Kenwood TS-430S was acting up. I emailed Jahnke describing the problem, fully expecting to ship it for repair. Paul replied almost immediately with a suggestion on what the issue might be. Sure enough, he was right; it was something simple that I had overlooked. Case closed. He even turned down my offer to pay him for his help. This is the kind of service that creates repeat customers -- and I'll certainly be one of them. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I sent in a basket case TS-440S that had a lot more sentimental value than actual value, it had the "Dots" issue and other problems as well. I was quickly informed of all the issues and let them know what my dollar limit was for the additional repairs. The final tally came out to half of what I expected. The radio came back extremely clean and in great working order...back on the air with a new lease on life! Thanks guys!

My R5000, Night and Day Difference Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I sent Paul a base model R-5000 with the dot problem. He and Steve promptly went through it, fixed that and replaced several caps with an alignment afterwards. While he had it in the shop I asked him to also install several upgrades including all the optional filters, VC-20 VHF converter, VS-1 voice synthesizer, IC-10 interface IC kit, DCK-2 DC operation kit aand the LED front panel light. I am now enjoying a suberbly operating fully loaded Kenwood R-5000, what a difference!
