I know what I'm going to buy this year and more Kenwood radio's coming. My dream Kenwood would be a portable shack-in-a-box, their version of the Yaesu FT-857D or Icom IC-7000. That would be an instant buy.
While I love my TS-890, I think the TS-590SG is one of my favorites. It's got all the things you need, and nothing you don't. Excellent receiver and controls layout. Easy to read display, and you can even hook an SDR up to it as a panadapter. Such a great value.
My favourite Kenwood radio is my Kenwood TS-590S. It was my first HF radio when I got my Foundation Licence and it's still a fantastic radio. 73 Dom, 2E0WHQ
Hi Tony and team, my favourite Kenwood is the first one I bought on becoming a licensed amateur. It’s easy to use, it has great audio and it’s a keeper. I’ve spoken to a lot of hams who have said “I used to have one of those and wish I never sold it”. It’s the Kenwood TS 570 DG. 73 Ian 2E0LYX
TR-7950 is a gem... A friend of mine did an Arduino mod to include CTCSS tones and a new display it is simply a marvel, straightforward menus, wonderful piece of engineering restomoded working wonderfully on our repeater still 40 years and keep rocking
Excellent presentation Tony! I’m considering one to purchase to use as a receiver only. Your video answered a lot questions I had. Best regards, JG from Florida USA
If you have an iPhone or iPad and want to get more out of your TH-D75, consider getting the B.B. Link adapter. This adapter allows iOS devices to work with the Kenwood TH-D74 and TH-D75 over Bluetooth. With it, you can run apps like RadioMail for emails and aprsfi for GPS positioning and messaging, leveraging the powerful built-in packet TNC in the radio.
My one gripe for why I haven't updated to the 75 is that the plastics they used on the THD-74 do not hold up to the demands of daily work however a great HT for the Ham radio Operator
I have always thought the D74 was the best. As much as I like the Icom 52 the Kenwood 74 is still my go to radio. If only it would work with Apple AirPods.
As this radio has digital repeater functionality and with an eye on Meshtastic, is it conceivable that a hand held radio could be built such that it is part of a mesh. My thoughts are that when turned on it comes on as a mesh node. Can you see wher I am going with this. Anyway to get back to reality, I am not really a handheld radio person but this is one handheld I would be interested in buying. Thanks for the video.
No KISS which the old model did have? No dual? Not seeing the price for this. Guess those two things is what I wanted out of it, more dstar (which in my area is dead and plenty of radios with aprs for much less. Hope it fits someone else's need.
My favorite Kenwood radio is my dad's TS440S/AT. Dad is a silent key now, but his radio lives on in my shack!

What means portable shack in a box? Like smaller mobile radio?
@@VeslanjejezivotIt is the term that is used for a tranceiver that does 160 m -70 cm, like an FT-857D. No need for separate HF and VHF/UHF boxes.
Kenwood need to bring out some new mobile and base station radios too!
Good morning , good afternoon and good evening all , yay I did it. Passed inter ! 🎉

My favorite Kenwood product is my TM-D710GA. I'm ready for the TH-D75 !
I bought a TM-D710GA before they were discontinued. I got rid of it after 6 months. Most over rated radio I have ever owned.
My favorite Kenwood Radio is the d74...a quality HT..I also have a TS 870...STILL GOING STRONG.

My favorite ht was the TH-79 from years ago.
Excellent presentation Tony! I’m considering one to purchase to use as a receiver only. Your video answered a lot questions I had. Best regards, JG from Florida USA
My favourite Kenwood rig at present is my TM710 but the D75 looks very tempting!😍
My favorite Kenwood product is the TS-830S - a classic transceiver.
That 75 must be my next favorite purchase!
Apart from my 2000
Hands Down now it has to be the Kenwood TH D75 w all those excellent features I can use quite nicely. Good presentation, thanks! de M7WDX
Kenwood is the only one who has voice guidance on there radios for the visually challenged, no one else.
Ts890 is the favourite
Hey this is Stanley, KF4KQL, GOOD VIDEO, BUT YOU FORGOT THAT THE, TH-D75, IS ALSO 220MHZ, AS WELL 😮
I've only used one Kenwood product so far, which is the D75. That is my favorite by default. Thanks for the video! :)
My favourite kenwood product has got to be my grandads ts890.what a radio that is
My favourite is the TH-D74, a cracking radio which always gets excellent broadcast quality audio reports on D-Star.
Nice. How do you connect to D-Star on Kenwood?
Thanks for the demo

My favourite Kenwood product is my TH-K20E Steve MW0SAW
Good afternoon to All at ML&S
My one gripe for why I haven't updated to the 75 is that the plastics they used on the THD-74 do not hold up to the demands of daily work however a great HT for the Ham radio Operator
Hello. My favorite transceiver is my TS990. Greetings Cor PA3CRL
Where’s the radio made? Japan?
Made in Malaysia
Good morning Tony et all, De Ray, M0RAY
Why didn't they upgrade the bluetooth from D74 to D75? Big miss there.
The lack of bluetooth to Apple products means I will not upgrade had they done this I would of ordered one
I have always thought the D74 was the best. As much as I like the Icom 52 the Kenwood 74 is still my go to radio. If only it would work with Apple AirPods.
Great video !
Now we just need to see a replacment for the TS990 and maybe the TS2000 which was a big seller for Kenwood.
I’ll have one of those
My favorit Kenwood radio is the TS 890 Tony! regards, M0OLY.
Is that the biggie that Val M0XXT uses?
My Kenwood TS440
My favourite Kenwood is the TS-830M (the AM version)
I'm a mixture of hobby radio guy, ex pro radio guy miilitary n GCHQ.. prob not a game changer but for me could be a lot worse lol
Been using mine on D-Star, very pleased with it, m0cet
TS-570S maybe D75
The TH-D75 from G7RDJ
But does it do full duplex for satallite.
Best kenwood got to be the TS870
Kenwood bring back the D710GE analouge.

My TH-74d the wife’s is the mixer
Any word from Kenwood on new mobile radios?
My TC2000X is my favourite - G4MWW
Will it do GPS search on FM repeaters?
A fantastic video introduction to the new Kenwood Handheld, very tempted
TM d710ge
TS 890s
Is there anything available with 2/4m ssb portable?
TS990S :-)
Does it have DMR?
The Kenwood TH-D75 can operate on D-Star, not DMR.
7:30... how does that work ? You're supposed to let the battery drain on standby ? That could take forever
Will it do self-contained WinLink?
Josh at Ham Radio Crash Course has an excellent video that may be of assistance. th-cam.com/video/BIyCq1MvCpI/w-d-xo.html
My 990
Se voglio giocare uso le console !!! A sto punto inserire pure i social gli sms le videochiamate e lo Snake
No KISS which the old model did have? No dual? Not seeing the price for this. Guess those two things is what I wanted out of it, more dstar (which in my area is dead and plenty of radios with aprs for much less. Hope it fits someone else's need.
I wonder ıf the bluetoth wıll work wıth apple aır pods and aır pod max. That would make my upgrade my D74 for sure
Una volta erano Radio ora sono diventati smartphone a breve mettono pure le chat ....se perso ciò che lo spirito della Radio
Così va il mondo moderno, questo è il progresso. Anche i vecchi radioamatori devono essere trascinati, scalcianti e urlanti, nel 21° secolo.
