Hi Guys,
Well, I always wanted one of those rigs but I had an older brother or maybe
I should say an uncle to the TR 7950. It was the TR 7600. I think it was
the last 10 watt rig that Kenwood ever built.
Once I got caught. I had jammed the mic between the radio and a tape
recorder at full power output. I was laying on the bed talking to my wife.
The phone rang and when I answered it, the County's EC called me a turkey.
I got a certificate from The Turkey Group international for testing the
final
amplifier stage of an amateur radio while talking in the background. I
received the certificate at a Christmas party and was laughing so hard that
people wasn't sure if I were laughing or crying. It was great fun. I used
the radio on packet in the late 90's.
