My old TS-930S was 40 lbs and dominated the top of an executive desk. I
recently weighed my K2/10 and K2/100, both heavily accessorized.
Together, they are a few ounces short of 10 lbs. Never again.

Back in the late 80's I ordered a TS-950 sight-unseen from a catalog. It was
to replace my trusty TS-180SAT. When it arrived I thought they'd accidently
sent me TWO 950's in the same box. I had not paid any attention to the size
and weight specs of the rig when I ordered it. It was so huge, there was no
room for anything on the front of the operating desk once the 950 was in place.
I boxed it up and sent it back. I was stronger then but knew that I would
(hopefully) be growing old and would need help moving that beast.
I recently looked at the specs of the 990 and knew it would be a back-breaker
too.

Anyone remembers the TS 950, then the 950 SD and finally, the TS 950 SDX?
Could it be a repeat of the 950 series? Or, is it that the days of the
Legendary Kenwood TX and RX audio is something of the past?
Food for thought.
