I have experianced similar problems when using BOT vs. EOT. We have several 280s, 2180s and 7180s in the field and all are set up for EOT. The 2180s and 7180s display the caller ID flawlessly, but the 280s are hit and miss and mostly miss. I have played with the configurations and have never been ab...

You can use a KVC-8A with the TK-290 and the KVC-9A with the TK-390 radios. These are band specific and have the amplifiers incorporated into them, 35 watts for VHF and 25 watts for UHF. The 90 series portables are the only ones with an antenna connection on the accessory connector that is required ...

Kenwood 60 Series Display Lighting

This is a common problem with the older 60 series mobiles. There are 3 surface mount LED/Bulbs, (not sure exactly what they are), anyway there are 3 on each end of the display. They are connected in series and if one does out, they all go out. Sometimes one end of the display lights will go out and ...

We always use the KPG-56D software to program TK-272, TK-372 portables. These portables are advertised as 32 channel radios, but will take the 128 channels exactly like a TK-270G or TK-370G. When we program them like this, they always work fine, without any issues with reading and writing. These rad...

On the 30 series mobiles, I have seen crazy things like this before, Usually reading and writing of the radio would fix it. Give this a try.....
