I have a YEASU VX5 and will shut down also when on a charge or a car
lighter plug at 5 Watts. But on low power it will TX ok.<br>
My TH-D72 will shut down on the charger when I key up but on a car
lighter plug at 5 Watts it transmits ok.<br>
<br>
By the way how many people got a charger, 240V plug pack or a car
lighter plug and cable with there TH-D72.<br>
I got nothing with my TH-D72, nothing at all to charge my KENWOOD
TH-D72. <br>
So I could not use the damn thing until I charged it up.<br>
<br>
I had to go out and find a plug pack and buy it to charge the radio .<br>
I found out that I could have bought a Kenwood desk charger for around
$169-00.<br>
<br>
The TH-D72 is a good radio but I am really pinged off with Kenwood over
this.<br>
I am not impressed with Kenwood.<br>
