We have the ts2000 and never had a problem with ehich why I posted from the
other list I don't know about the icom pro as I have only operated that
radio at a club so I don't know of it under home conditions.
My thanks to those who have replied

Hi List;
I had both radios and I did not experience any problems with either one =
of them.
Both ICOM and KENWOOD in my opinion always had good quality control.

Bob,
I was concerned about the reliability of the 746P AND the TS-2000 when =
I was
researching them. I bought a TS2000 in February. The research I did =
found
that BOTH have reliability issues. The 746 loses transmit ability and
despite claims that it is fixed in newer models, I have seen reports =
that
suggest the problem is still there. Kenwood has a similar problem but =
the
symptoms is that transmit is lost on all but the 70cm band. I think it =
is
less common than the 746P problem but I have seen about four posts =
hear in
the past three months. Icom repairs theirs for free even when out of
warranty, Kenwood reportedly does not (unless within Warranty).
The 746P has the infamous backlit display problem, I have not seem =
anything
similar reported for the Kenwood TS2000. The TS2000 has supposed
sessitivity issues on 2M.
