Only their ham gear, their commercial gear is the opposite way with most commercial radios these days. I have a lot of Kenwood commercial gear, I'm slowly migrating that way for what little uhf/vhf I do so I can use it for emergency management stuff, actually get my money's worth out of radios. My latest ham HT's have generally been ones that need minor repairs or one has a cracked display which is a yaesu ft-10R and that has the antenna connector the commercial way oddly enough. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerry Leary" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Saturday, January 15, 2011 10:29 AM Subject: Re: good ht anntenna replacement sorry about all the questions > Kenwood has the threads on the outside of the connector on the radio. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Buddy Brannan" <[log in to unmask]> > To: <[log in to unmask]> > Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2011 1:16 PM > Subject: Re: good ht anntenna replacement sorry about all the questions > > >> Drop a note to Ed at www.wouxun.us.
