 Jim,

 The 2000 was out several years before the 480 and doesn't speak 
as much.
    There are things like mic gain, power setting, and  
compression
 settings that  you will have to count clicks on the 2000.  The 2 
radios
 don't even use the same voice board.

 Right now, the top of the line for speech from Kenwood is the 
590, which
 uses the same board as the 480, but also  gives some speech 
readout
 while in transmit.   Things like power output, swr, alc, and 
compression
  are all spoken on the 590 in TX.

 Not sure what the new big boy from Kenwood may  speak 
differently, but
 if you can afford one, you can afford to pay someone to stand 
behind you
  and tell you what is on the display.

 I do have a 2000, 480, and 590 in the shack, and they are all 
fine radios.

 Hi listers, I know this subject has been discussed before, but
 can someone tell me, us, if the speech guide is just as detailed
 on the Ts-2000 as it is on the TS-480? I have a 480 and am kind
 of thinking about upgrading to the 2000 but really want the same
 level of information that the speech chip offers on the 480.
