U20506 AS-IS Shipping Damage Kenwood TKR-850-1 UHF FM Repeater Ver 2.0

U20506 AS-IS Kenwood TKR-850-1 UHF FM Repeater Ver 2.0

This pre-owned Kenwood TKR-850-1 UHF FM repeater is being offered strictly AS-IS for parts or repair, as it is untested and unchecked with unknown functional status. The unit sustained significant physical damage during transit, with a visibly bent front panel and rack ear profile, extensive finish scratches, edge abrasions, and residual storage dust/grime across the black chassis surfaces. It includes a DC power cable lead. It was said to be in working condition when shipped in but with the impact that it took we think its best to not spend the money getting it checked. It is being sold as if for parts or repair only

The Kenwood TKR-850 is a commercial-grade continuous-duty UHF FM repeater and base station engineered for conventional or trunked communications systems across commercial and amateur radio frequencies.

Featuring high-stability frequency reference circuitry, extensive rear-panel accessory integration, and continuous duty cycle operation at rated output power, it is a staple platform for commercial communications, amateur repeaters, and auxiliary station networks.
