Purchased a Kenwood TM-733 in 1996 just after getting licensed. Radio started acting up after 24 years. Was advised the TM V71 was the updated version of the 733 so I didn’t hesitate for one second on purchasing this as a replacement. It’s every bit as good, and better, than the 733 is. Was able to get the 733 repaired too, so it is back and running when I need it. Nice to know the quality of Kenwood and it has become my favorite brand.

I liked my first one so much I bought another... Both from MTC because a) they have it in stock and b) their price is excellent. This is a solid, analog rig. Well built and I get great signal reports. I find it easy to operate. I find the dual VFO to be very useful.
This radio doesn't have a ton of bells-and-whistles, but what it does, it does very well. I just an reliable, high-quality analog rig, so this fits the bill. My only complaint is that the screen is a little on the small size for a mobile rig. MTC had the best price I could find on one of these.

Great Kenwood sound....MTC had the best price / prompt shipping & service.
(do wish it had an onboard TNC, like the TM D710.....but then it would cost more!)

I have several of these mobile radios and like the way they perform. They are the best mobile radio that I have found and has many options for other uses. The TM-D710 control head can be added to convert it to a 710 as well.

I love the radio. Shipped and arrived time did not surprise me. MTC always comes through. Nothing but compliments from fellow Hams about this radio.

I have got to say, this is one nice radio and packed with all kinds of goodies. I wanted a dual band radio that would keep up with all the Nets I do as well as Skywarn activities, and ARES Nets. It actually works so well that within two weeks of my first purchase I bought another to use in my mobile.

I've only had the rig for a few weeks. Currently have it setup as my home station as I haven't had time to get it installed in my vehicle. For what little time I've had on the rig, I receive good reports. I have not tried the cross band repeater function yet. Out of the box to first QSO less than 20-minutes.

Not much I could say that already hasn't been said about this widely acclaimed dual band mobile transceiver. It has more versatility than I'll probably ever use, and the value is excellent.
That said, I do think Kenwood should have included the KFK-3D front panel kit with the radio. I know I'm not alone in that opinion as well.
The radio is great, you just need to buy it from the place that will give you the absolute best price, delivery, and service: Main Trading Company. I'm so pleased with MTC that every piece of equipment in my shack that I bought new I purchased from MTC. Nobody beats 'em!
