Wtb - Kenwood TS50 control head / display

[jrd426]

Anyone have a fully working display / control head for kenwood ts50s ? I am hoping to find one that already has the caps replaced in behind the display. Please send me a message if you have one available and will ship to canada. The one i have works but has no front lights due to failed caps and likely burnt lights. Thanks in advance

jrd426,
I do not have a TS50 control head/display but am aware of problems with TS50's on the market. Finding someone that wants to sell a display may very well result in you getting another display with the same problems that your has.

The 2 video links below will explain the problems and fixes for the TS50 display.





Good Luck.

Not only save your money, but here's how to fix it!
