Looking at retiring my old Kenwood TM-741A. It's been a good rig, but it is large and does not fit anywhere in the new TV. Anyone shed some light on the pro's and con's of the newer rigs? Should I get a multiband rig with HF? My last retirement was about 6 months ago, finally retired my Icom IC-02at. The batteries need to be replaced and due to the age of the rig, upgraded to a VX-7R.
