[amsat-bb] Good price on Kenwood TS2000X

[Stefan Wagener]

Hi John et al,

The link still works. Its just that the unit sold now for $998 and you need
to look at the "original listing" and yes, it is a TS2000x, yes it has
1.2GHz and yes someone got a get a great deal. Newer serial number, no bad
filters etc....
