Really? This is an all-volunteer effort, so radios get added to CHIRP as
people volunteer to loan their radios to a developer, or we come across
a developer with a particular radio :)

We have indoctrinated several folks successfully. Jump over to the
chirp-devel list and we'll get you started. If the TS-2000 is like all
the other Kenwood radios, adding support is as simple as creating a
subclass, defining a few attributes and doing some testing.

Thanks!
