This could be either very good or very bad news.  I talked with the Kenwood 
rep at the Huntsville Hamfest in August, and as always asked about a 
replacement for the TS-2000.  It is a sort of running joke between us.  This 
year, his reply was "3 years, at least."  He explained that due to changes 
in the commercial radio world that Kenwood was allocating all its 
engineering resources there for the immediate future.  It will be 
interesting to see whether this is just a temporary production pause, a 
multiyear lapse in that part of the market, a change in plans, or ???
