Beware of KA1KLO John

Post by Stephen »

John posted add for a Kenwood TM-731A in "excellent condition" but it arrived with a cracked face plate & the volumn & squelch shaft bent & missing the volumn portion of the knob. This didn't happen during shipping or the missing portion of the knob would have been in the box. Box came with a return address of Smitty's Communications in Watertown, CT. This radio is a beater, not in "excellent condition". I thought I was buying from an individual, not a repair shop.
