In 1980 I bought a then new Kenwood 820S which had myriad issues. Looked inside after a week and almost every solder joint on the boards were cold soldered. Contacted kenwood and they said they no longer dealt with the dealer I bought from and they would not honour the warranty.
I asked a Japanese friend if she would translate a letter to Kenwood in Japan, I sent that to their headquarters and never heard back. I never bought a Kenwood anything again, went TenTec. Now I only use Elecraft and my old early 90's Alpha. 73, Gary KA1J > Having done warranty work for Kenwood, both on commercial and amateur > products, they are very "fussy" about warranty policy. <snip> --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
