Due to personal financial needs I'm selling my Kenwood TS440S/AT along with the matching PS50 power supply. It comes with the original hand mic.

I bought it anticipating upgrading my ticket to general; however, things have not turned out that way for the time being. I've mostly used it for SWL and did some stuff with it on 10 meters.

The following mods were done to it:

Diode 80 clipped to enable general coverage TX. It came that way when I bought it.
Diode 66 clipped to enable display resolution in 10 Hz increments. Done by me.

IC 54 and IC 55 installed for serial communications. I bought the chips from Jameco and installed them. I do not have a serial cable for the radio

The VCO works fine as well as the key pad.

I would like to get $450.00 for it. I'll accept cash or USPS money order.

I live in southern New Castle county in Delaware and would prefer a local sale. Delaware, Eastern Shore Maryland, or nearby Pennsylvania/New Jersey area.

Here's a photo of it as well. It's a little too old for a novelty message on the display, but that frequency is novelty enough.

Looks like a nice one.

Since nobody local seems to be interested, I'm making the following change to the ad:

Any buyer is welcome. If you aren't local, I will ship UPS and personally cover shipping and insurance costs.

Things pulled through, so I guess I get to keep my radio. Thanks for looking!

That's good news. Grandma always said you never know what you've got till you've sold your TS440.
