Danny, I got my Kenwood R-2000 in May of 2018 for $75. It was a local sale. I enjoy it very much. However, it has poor sensitivity on the high bands, like 10 Meters. I may attempt an alignment one of these days. 73 Paul AA1SU
Pretty good find at that price. This one is missing the RF ATT pot and the CW and SSB does not work. I don't have anytime or any work space to try repair this one, especially when parts are being sold at ridiculous prices. Hopefully I can pick up another R-2000 someday and I will use this one for parts. I look forward to seeing any repair videos you post Paul. Thank you for watching. Have a good day. 73 Danny KD2ZZE
You are going to love this radio, Danny. Check out the videos I did on mine- 60 dollars at Goodwill. I think I paid three times as much for the VHF converter! It’s maybe the most underrated radio of the era.
I'm definitely enjoying this radio. I don't know if I will get the VHF converter because I only wanted this radio for HF and I seen the converter cost 3X more on Ebay. I have to watch your videos on this radio. Thank you for the comment Arthur. :)
Oh wow. Thanks for pointing me out where the on/ off button is. I couldn't find it on mine
Very happy for you Danny. Love an early Christmas present, all the best . 73's Lee.
Thank you Lee, yes it was a nice early Xmas present. Take care buddy and 73s. :)
What a great bargain. Congrats and 73!
Thank you Matthias and 73 my friend. :)

What a deal! I think I spent over $200 for mine back in 2014.
That is still the going rate for this radio. It's not a fully functional radio but for $50 I had to buy it. Thank you Dennis. :)
You're welcome! :)
