Kenwood KT-900 (1981, $350, photo) - Part of Kenwood’s "Audio Purist" series,
this little brother of the KT-1000 uses their pulse count detector circuitry
also found in the 600T and KT-615/815/917 series. The KT-900 has analog tuning
but has a digital LED frequency readout in addition to the analog dial. It has
4 gangs (although we have an Audio Purist brochure that erroneously claims 5
gangs!) and 4 filters and, when modified, is similar in performance to a
modified KT-615 or 815. A KT-900 sold for $120 on eBay in 10/02. [EF][JR]
