    Description

    I purchased this R-2000 on eBay very recently.  It works great.  My plans have changed.  I copied some of this ad from the original listing.
    Up for your consideration today is a used, checked, and working Kenwood R-2000 general coverage receiver, S/N 4100060.
    It comes with a copy of the operating manual and an AC power cord.
    Currently set up for good old US of A 120 Volts AC!
    The range is 150 kc-30 MHz general coverage AM, FM, USB, LSB, and CW modes.
    118- 174 MHz reception is possible with the addition of the optional VC-10 VHF converter (see my other auctions for one of these rare beasts!)
    Here are descriptions and specifications for the unit (shamelessly lifted from the Universal Radio site!):
    The Kenwood R-2000 was the first modestly priced communications receiver to offer a host of advanced capabilities; succeeding the R-600 and R-1000. The R-2000 tunes from 100 to 29999.9 kHz in five modes (AM, FM, USB, LSB, and CW). The R-2000 presents the listener with three different tuning rates (and a frequency lock) plus convenient 1 MHz UP/DOWN buttons. A noise blanker, four position attenuator, AGC and all mode squelch are also included. The ten channel memory stores frequency and mode. The band-scan mode permits the R-2000 to scan between two user selected frequencies (at three rates!). The built-in seven digit fluorescent tube digital display indicates frequency to the nearest 100 Hz. With dimmer switch. The dual 24 hour quartz digital clock-timer can be used to activate the radio and an auxiliary device (recorder, etc.) for absentee DXing. The large front mounted speaker insures good fidelity. The rear panel has input for coaxial or hi-Z wire antennas. 120 VAC. UL listed. There is also the optional VC-10 VHF converter for additional frequency coverage.

    I checked basic functions, such as volume, VFO tuning, mode switches, AF gain, tone, squelch, dimmer, attenuator, band up and down, tuning speeds, and dial lock.
    Everything I checked worked fine, no issues were found.
    Cosmetics are relatively good, with a fairly clean front panel with minor wear and dings on the high spots.
    The covers are scratched commensurate with normal wear
    Screws do show some wear. The unit only has light dust internally.
    The unit is sold “as is”.
    It leaves here working and well packed!
    No guarantees beyond that.
    I have honestly described the item.
    Check my feedback, and bid with confidence!
