Does anyone have the PC programing software for these radios, and perhaps by

By these radios do you mean the TKR-751 (same as TKR-750) and the TK-862G?

I would agree with the quality issues, but does that really equate to
unintelligibility on any significant scale?

yes, the range will be reduced.
TKR-751 is a full blown VHF high band repeater Nothing similar there to the
TK-705 or TK-805.
The TK-862G is somewhat similar to the TK-805 in that it is a UHF mobile rig.
It requires KPG-56D software and the cable that works on the TK-705/805 will
also work on the TKR-751 and the TK-862.
my unit is a mobile
and yes the wiring diagram would be awesome
i bought my unit from Pacific Aerials in Auckland New Zealand a pretty few
years back, they are now however as best i know, not the agents for Kenwood,
hence i am trying to locate the software,

And there is the issue of PL tone. Keep dropping the modulation level and
decoding becomes tougher, at least with boards like ComSpec.

Hello folks,
I have a TKR-850 operating as a UHF repeater and EchoLink/IRLP node.
It works great!
I have a TKR-750 that I would like to put into service on a simplex
frequency. The advertising literature and the service manual both
state that it can be used on simplex using only one antenna,
For simplex use, you have to have an external antenna relay.

Ideally, the Micor squelch should be used in conjunction with the Micor PL

achieve a satisfactory squelch action by using a short audio
