With push form my local cruiser club I finally got my HAM license last weekend. I really have done very little research on radios, but a few guys recommended this as a good, reliable, affordable, tough option.
Kenwood TM-281A
This looks like a good option to me to get started and see if in the future I really need something fancier. The one thing it doesn’t have is a detachable faceplate. So I’m a little lost as to where to mount it in my 200. Anybody have any photos of what radios they have and how and where they mounted? I searched old threads and only photo I saw was one Slee built 200 that had a detached faceplate down on the ashtray.
