I just have to say thank you for doing this demonstration of the Kenwood TS-440. I just got my tech license 2 months ago and am studying for my General test to be taken next month. I just joined a local Ham club today and the president of the club has graciously offered this particular model radio to me for less than half price to help get me started. Since I was a Morse code operator in the Navy back in the 1960's he said this model would be a great start for me. Can't wait till I get my radio and start operating it. This was a great video which I will save to help me learn how to use my radio when I get it.

I'm probably a bit weird, but I get more excited by watching videos of used ham rigs from years past than the new DSP / highly digiital rigs. I just like the more analog sound and meters than the digital filters and sound of today's models. I realize these are still considered rice box transistor radios by elmers, but do much enjoy the older gen of transistor transistors for their simplicity, easier layout (real buttons) and real S-meters and sound of them more.
@SevenFortyOne5 жыл бұрын
Not weird at all! I feel the same way. Modern rigs have their place and I have fun with them but there is something about these old Kenwood rigs that just make them a joy to use

Great review. I’ve owned a ts -440/at for about 7 years now. It’s funny how I’ve learned a whole lot about my rig by watching your video. I purchased mine from my Elmer. He bought it brand new in 1988. I even have all the receipts for the rig and all the options he got with it. The voice command thingy is fun for about 30 seconds but her voice is loud and old school computer sounding. It’s a great rig and I use it a lot over my ten tec Eagle if I want to play old school. Or even older school I’ll fire up the ts-820s, but that another story. The morel of my ramblings are this. If you fine one in the shape of this hams for a good price. Get it LEARN TO USE IT and all it functions. And it’s not menu driven either and that rocks. 73’s kj4unx

A few days ago I took my 440 out of moth balls. I connected it to an adjustable lab power supply to run the volts up slowly trying to prevent shorting out capacitors. I bought mine new, but it's not been ON for maybe 10 years except for the last few days. I forgot almost everything about how to operate the rig, so I appreciate your video. 4.5 volts lit up the notch filter and other feature indicator lights. At 9 volts I could hear static on the speker at few more hours to wake it up slowly. All I heard so far other than static is a local 50K watt AM broadcast station. I hope the RX works a lot better when I get it up to normal operating volts. Again. Thanks for the video.

I changed the long wire to a 180 ft dipole to see how many bands will give me a low SWR. I made a few cw QSOs on 30M. I'll settle down to a few fan dipoles and maybe a vertical antenna or two. As is now (180 ft dipole) it seems to give me the best results on 30 meters. I CQed a few times on 20M and 40M. The TS440 auto tuner matches on those bands, but I think the antenna SWR must be 50:1 lol Thanks for your interest.

@@dheujsnrhfydhehehshshhdggsd When I bought mine it had a comma in the price tag. lol I had cw finters put in it. The only other rigs I used were tube rigs and this one is all solid state. I like it a lot, but I have no other reference to transistor rigs. I do only HF cw and what I enjoy most about this rig is it has IF shift and the filters. It also has rit (receive incremental tuning) and that also helps when the band is real busy. That lets me move my receive frequence while my transmmit signal stays the same as when the QSO first started. That combo makes it easier to get get on the signal you want when the band is crowded. Oh, I worked cross band a few times on it. That was a novelty activity for me and I likely wouldn't have suggested trying it, but I was fair game when my friend asked me to try it. I had to relearn the buttons and knobs when I put it back on the air last week. It came back easy enough. There's manuals on line if you need one. My only other thirst for a rig is for a dedicated QRP rig. But, that's just a luxury. The 440 can go down to QRP. You'll like a full power rig better because limiting yourself to low power can be frustrating unless you're patient and like the challenge more than making more contacts. Whichever rig you decide on I wish you all the best.

Excellent review of a true classic ! You thoroughly go through all the features of this gem. I do not own one (I am a HAM though) , but I do have 2 of its " receiving brothers", the very nice R5000. Only thing of " complaint" is that they get sort of hot, being switched on for more than half an hour. But the features of it and the receiving audio are outstanding to my opinion, even to today's standards. Technically the TS-440 and the R5000 are not exactly the same ( apart from one being a TRX and the other one being a receiver ) but they share a lot of the same features. I like em both a lot and I use my R5000's a lot next to my very modern SDR TRX' ses. They are here to stay.... in fact, I should get one of these as a " stand-by TRX" ' cause the 're solid, good and well built !!!

I managed to keep it working by leaving it on standby all the time. I also tried to remove the glue that Kenwood put on the components that when it aged went conductive and was only partially successful. I still have the rig and the Kenwood linear supply for it. Then the electrolytic capacitors started going bad. I bought myself a new rig and the 440 sits on a shelf and gathers dust. My next rig was an Icom for reasons that you can guess.

SevenFortyOne The Kenwood‘ s of this era were notorious for the key bounce issue. The only keys on my R-2000 that do that are for setting and resetting the time. Luckily, that’s a twice a year thing, and even then, a minimum of bounce. Oddly, it doesn’t have direct key entry. It’s odd how it was considered a very mid level receiver in its heyday, and now hobbyists go nuts over them.

No se si todos entendemos lo que es una radio portátil o móvil.los tiempos an cambiado mucho .tienes equipos móviles muchos más pequeños y livianos .por nombrar algunos Yaesu 857 o 891 .que es el que tengo yo y creo que con eso queda todo claro .no entiendo.claro entiendo que algunos compañeros se an quedado atrapados en el tiempo .nunca se me ocurriría llevarme un 440 en el car o mobil .en estos tiempos sería una brutalidad .suerte y a disfrutar de ese tanque pero en Qth .nos tomarían por locos en un parque con esa reliquia .esos equipos antiguos son como las personas mayores no te puedes ir a un maratón con 70 años .esos equipos de más de 30 años es para moverlos lo menos posibles y cuidarlos en casa como joyas .no pensar darle una vida de joven en expedición .sería su muerte

I really miss my Kenwood 140s with the external speaker and power supply, I sold it after a divorce and regret that decision. I am currently looking at a 440 with power supply, Tommy, KE5PQD
