<----I'm afraid I have to disagree with your analysis that simply because others have retuned them to 70 cm is no guarantee. In fact, Kenwood spec's the TKR-850 in the ham band. I'm looking at the service manual and there, in black and white, is the freq. spec "Frequency range 440 to 470 Mhz". Not to mention the Kenwood FPU programming software has 440 to 450 Mhz as a valid range. They tune easily and meet full factory spec when retuned. I haven't seen one yet that doesn't.
