Peter.. not only do I 'Own/Run a TR-751/851'.. I also 'Own the Group' !

If the Rig is in near NOS..(ie:original Box.Manual/mic/MB-10 (lil Y-Plug
on the Rear) You could probably get $350 or so ! If it does have the
Vol/Squ.. RIT/RF Pot problems that were associated with them.. that
knocks $100 of easy ! There are Replacement pots yet available as
well. I have seen many 'Parts Rigs' even go for $150.. ! So far, I
have been fortunate with mine, to not experience any problems, other
than Freq. Drift.. but that is another board problem, that is still
available 'New' for $12 or so ! 73 and GL

One of our club members has developed neurological issues and has
basically lost all his memory. Don't know if it's Alzheimer's or
what. Came on suddenly, though, got better for a while but now I
guess he's in some sort of memory care facility. Very sad - we miss
him at the VE sessions.
Anyway, his daughter is looking to sell some of his stuff and one of
the pieces is a Kenwood TR-751A 144 MHz all-mode. I don't yet know
the condition, but I bet it's clean and well cared for.
What would one of those be worth? I figure this group would have a
better idea than the folks on most of the lists I'm on.
Also, what vintage is it? I figure late 1980s, but I really don't know.
Thanks,
Peter
