Doug,

On the pair I have: the TW-2 has the power jack close to the bottom of 
the rear panel.   The TW-1  has the jack higher on the rear panel.

To confirm this, power the one you think is the TW-2 and  press and release
both the far left and far right buttons at the same time. 
This is how you switch between bands on the TW-2, so you will hear it 
announce   each band as you press the buttons and cycle through the bands.

73, Steve KW3A
