It's a birdie on all of the 2000's I think... But that is an FM bird, so I just listen to that downlink on a different FM mobile radio Bob

Mike,
I don't have a TS-2k, but it does have a separate RX input. At least one person mentioned using it with a separate RX converter on SO-50 which gets around the internal birdie. Probably not a cost effective solution unless you happen to have one laying around.
As for a new Kenwood, I have been asking them that for years, literally. The answer in the past has always been that it is under active consideration. Real Soon Now.
