Kenwood TM-G707A 2M/70CM FM Transceiver
Kenwood TM-G707A 2M/70CM FM Transceiver
I have the Kenwood TM-G707A mounted in my truck. I have been using this rig in my vehicles over the past 13 years and I have not had any problems with the rig whatsoever. I have had problems with my electrical grounding, but I cured that when I hooked the positive lead to the remote positive terminal for the battery and connected the negative lead to the block. It has a large control panel with an amber-colored LCD. It is easy to operate mobile without having to take your eyes off of the road. This mobile transceiver provides 50 (50/10/5W) watts on 2 meters and 35 (35/10/5W) watts on 440 MHz. The TM-G707A offers memory name function (7 character), S-meter squelch, time-out timer, encode/decode, dimmer, auto power-off and supplied MC-53DM backlit DTMF hand mic. Non-simultaneous cross-band repeater access is supported. A 6 pin mini DIN connector for 1200/9600 bps packet is provided. Receive coverage is 118-174 MHz and 410-524 MHz F3E (FM) (double conversion superheterodyne). The transmit range is 144-148 MHz and 430-450 MHz F3E (FM). The rig size is 5.5 x 1.7 x 7.4 inches and weighs 2.65 Lbs (140x40x190mm @ 1.2kg). It comes with a MC-53DM hand mic and requires 13.8 VDC at 11 amps.
