Kenwood L-02 tuner actually a unicorn


Does this tuner really exist or is it like the Unicorn? I have been looking for one for years and can't even find someone that actually owns one. If you have one, please let em know and how you aquired it.

Well at least we know they really exist. I guess I will spend more time trying to get one. Maybe a trip to Japan is in order to see one.
I am the original owner of a L-02T and matching L-02A
Bought the pair back in 1982 from a friend that owned a duty free store and because of the price he was unable to sell it in his duty free store in Jamaica. He sold the pair to me at what he said was at his cost. I was never able to hear the full potential of this tuner as the transmitters in Jamaica were sub standard. I migrated to Canada and brought the Kenwoods with me but never set them up. It was not until I saw information on the www of the desirablity of this tuner that I pulled it from storage and gave it a second look and ear. Also have the original Brochure of the units.

I will take some pictures over the weekend.
I have not completely made up my mind if I should sell or not but I am on a border line with a decision. I have to decide also if I will be pairing the two units and sell as a package or separetly. I had the Tuner looked at before the summer and an alignment was done. The L-02A amplifier needs some cleaning done on the relays I imagine as some of the recout lights do not glow brightly or not at all when selected.
I will post when the pictures are uploaded.
