Since sacrificing my APRS home rig to N9MXQ-15 I've been running an HT at 5 watts..It wasn't cutting it...

So, with a little luck in the eBay searches, and keeping my eyes peeled, I found a deal on a Kenwood TM-231a for cheap.. No mic, no power cord, no bracket...but it works and I already had a cable for it..

My home station is now up to a respectable 10 watts and serving as a fill digi in the area..
