Hi group:

I'm a new member of this group.

I've had an amateur (Tech with code) radio license for many years but 
I've never been on the air.

I thought that by obtaining a handheld transceiver such as the 
Kenwood TH-F6A, this would be an easy to become active with the hobby.

I looked back at some early posting in this group and I find that 
Posting No. 44 on Sept 10, 2001 appears to be the first one by a 
person who received one of the first TH-F6A transceivers imported 
into the country.

I'm wondering if Kenwood has made any changes or enhancements to the 
TH-F6A hardware or software (firmware) between the 2001 models and 
the 2008 models?

When such changes or enhancements are made by Kenwood, is the ham 
radio community advised?

If I were to look to purchase a used TH-F6A, should I look for 
certain model years only?

I look forward to your comments on this matter.

Regards,
