Ron, does he have a price point in mind? The TS480 is a good deal for the price, however I don't think it is as sensitive as some other radios. I assume he is only looking at new units?

Hello folks,
A blind friend of mine recently upgraded to general and is looking for suggestions of which H F Kenwood would be best for him. I have the 480 but some are telling him the 590 or others would work well for him. he has the 71a for 2 meter and 440 so we don't feel a need to duplicate those freqs in a base since his wife likely will not permit moving the 2 meter into the car.
What are the suggestions?
Ron
