THIS COMES AS PICTURED. IT POWERS ON AS SHOWN BUT THAT IS ALL THE TESTING DONE ON IT. I DO HEAR STATIC FROM THE SPEAKER WHEN POWERED ON BUT THE LCD READOUT APPEARS TO BE WEAK OR NOT WORKING UNLESS THEE IS SOME TRICK TO GET IT TO TURN ON. THE ONE LEVER SWITCH IS MISSING AND THE ONE ON THE FAR RIGHT IS NOT RIGHT. MAY NEED TWO OF THOSE CHEAPLY MAKES LEVER CAPS REPLACED. ALL OTHERS TO USE EIS.

This radio seems to be in working condition (it transmits and receives) but has a couple issues the function knob is broken off (its in the VFO position so the radio is still operational). The send receive switch plastic is loose but is still Functional. It was once in a heavy smokers shack which is noticeable when the cover is removed. The digital dial works properly and displays the correct frequency. This would make a good first radio, backup radio or parts unit to keep your Kenwood up and running.
