Kenwood ProTalk Radios
Kenwood has made some minor improvements to the TK-2200/3200 Series ProTalk Portable Radios and changed the Model #’s to the TK-2300/3300 Series. The Radio Package prices have remained the same. The Batteries, Chargers, Belt-Clips and Antennas are the same. There are some very slight cosmetic changes to the Radio itself. Following is a list of the changes in the new ProTalk Radio Packages:
o The TK-2300 Series will be offered as 4 & 16 Channel Models versus 2 & 8 Channel Models for the existing TK-2200 Series.
o The 2300 Series will have an improved Speaker and improved Audio compared to the 2200 Series.
o The 2300 Series will have slightly larger Knobs that will be more easily manipulated with gloves.
o The Audio Jack is more durable.
NOTE 1: I still have limited stock on some of the VHF TK-2200 Series ProTalk Packages that are available to Users that are already using this Model and might prefer to keep the same Model for now. Please call for availability 727-538-0886.
NOTE 2: Kenwood has increased our pricing on some of the Parts & Accessories and I have increased our prices by the same amount.
TK-3230 versus TK-3130/3131 Series Models
NOTE 3: Kenwood has replaced the TK-3130 ProTalk Portable Radio with the new TK-3230 Model. This is an excellent radio choice for On-Site applications that require a very light-weight & compact Radio Package. The TK-3230 Portable Radio is designed and engineered with some significant improvements compared to the TK-3130 Model. The new radio is very similar in most respects to the previous TK-3130 Model; however, it has the following improvements:
o The new Lithium-Ion (2000 MAh) battery has a 18 hour life as opposed to the 10 hour life for the TK-3130 Models with the NiMH battery (based on a 5-5-90 Duty Cycle).
o The new TK-3230 Model with the Lithium-Ion Battery weighs 1.5 ounces less than the TK-3130 Model (5.5 oz vs. 7.0 oz).
o The new Radio is smaller than the TK-3130 (slightly narrower in Width and approx. ½” Shorter).
o The new Radio meets Eight of the Eleven Radio MIL-SPEC’s versus six for the TK-3130.
o The TK-3230 has a much more rugged fixed antenna design than the TK-3130.
o The Output Power on the TK-3230 has been increased to 1.5 Watts (vs. 1.0 Watt for the TK-3130).
o The TK-3230 has just one board (vs. two boards in the TK-3130) so it is much less subject to problems associated with drops.
o The TK-3230 has the same ruggedized battery latch that the 2300/3300 Kenwood Series Radios have.
o The TK-3230 has a 6-Channel Capacity (vs. the 2-Channel Capacity of the TK-3130).
The new Radio has the same Audio Jack as the existing Radio so you will have compatibility with all of your existing Audio Accessories.
