FEATURES

111

UDALL

CHEE

.

The

Model

TS-600

is

a

fully

solid-state,

all-mode

amateur

band

transceiver

designed

to

provide

high

quality

communications

on

SSB,

FM,

AM

and

CW

bands.

.

Bascially

engineered

for

fixed

station

operation

but

is

also

used

for

mobile

station

operation

because

of

the

employment

of

AC/DC

two-way

power

system.

.

The

single

and

doubleconversion

type

transceiver

in-

corporates

its

own

built-in

VFO

that

continuously

covers

the

frequency

range

of

50.00

to

54.00MHz

in

4

bands.

mechanism

facilitates

tuning:

MAIN

TUNING

knob

(inner)

for

closer

tuning

covers

a

change

of

25kHz

by

one

com-

plete

rotation,

and

QUICK

TUNING

knob

(outer)

covers

a

change

of

100kHz

similarly.

You

can

tune

in

quickly

with

pin-point

accuracy.

This

feature

is

very

useful

in

receiving

SSB

signals.

.

The

main

dial

is

graduated

at

1kHz

intervals

and

provides

accurate

readings

up

to

100kHz,

while

the

sub-dial

is

graduated

at

50

and

100kHz

intervals

for

reading

frequencies

up

to

1MHz

per

rotation.

.

A

total

of

20

fixed

channels

(5

channels

for

each

band)

for

all-mode

operation.

All

the

necessary

crystal

oscillator

elements

are

available

as

optional

acces-

sories.

Each

of

working

channels

can

be

visually

checked

by

the

KENWOOD’s

unique

channel

indicator.

.

A

noise

blanker

(NB)

circuit

of

the

type

normally

found

in

many

other

HF

products

of

our

make

is

in-

cluded

to

eliminate

pulse

noise

such

as

ignition

noise.

.

For

improved

FM-mode

operation,

a

squelch

circuit

combined

with

a

noise

detector

circuit

and

Schmidt

circuit

is

added

to

the

FM

unit.

.

A

tuner

which

uses

a

voltage

variable

capacitor

is

built

in

the

receiver

RF

stage

to

minimize

cross-talk

and

spurious

interference,

and

a

high

“Q”

tuning

circuit

in

the

antenna

input

stage

for

excellent

selectivity.

Speaker

output

is

free

from

distortion

because

of

the

use

of

amplification

type

AGC

circuit.

Signals

trans-

mitted

are

accompanied

by

little

or

no

splutter

and

free

from

distortion

thanks

to

the

adoption

of

ALC

circuit.

The

AGC

circuit

comprises

such

time-constant

element

that

this

constant

is

‘‘slow”

in

SSB

mode

but

“fast”

in

FM,

AM

or

CW

mode.

The

built-in

marker

signal

circuit

enables

you

to

calibrate

the

tuning

dial

precisely

at

100kHz

intervals.

By

setting

the

CALIBRATE

switch

to

ON’

the

re-

ceiver

RF

input

circuit

is

disabled,

thus

permitting

frequency

calibration

without

being

disturbed

by

external

signals.

The

unique

“’S’”

meter

provides

accurate

reading

without

causing

‘‘scale-out’”

even

when

unusually

strong

FM

signal

comes

in.

By

manipulating

the

center

meter

switch,

this

meter

functions

as

a

center

meter

(tuning

meter)

for

pin-point

tuning

of

FM

stations.

The

built-in

RIT

circuit

is

very

useful

during

recep-

tion,

particularly

in

SSB

and

CW

modes.

It

is

designed

to

be

used

for

both

VFO

and

fixed

channel

operations.

The

transceiver

operates

on

AC

120/220V

or

on

DC

13.8V.

It

includes

DC

voltage

multiplier

of

our

own

development,

contributing

much

to

the

space-saving

design

of

the

model.

Significant

improvements

are

embodied

in

the

panel

design

for

making

this

transceiver

much

easier

to

con-

trol

and

use.

Dials

and

knobs

are

of

more

advanced

type

in

visual

and

functional

senses.

Meter

illumina-

tion

and

pilot

lighting

are

included

assuming

night-

time

use

of

the

transceiver.

Visual

aspects

are

taken

as

an

important

criterion

in

the

designing

of

this

transceiver.

Mechanical

features

too

have

been

treated

similary,

with

particular

em-

phasis

on

their

reliability.

For

assuring

easier

access

to

the

internals,

the

transceiver

enclosure

or

case

is

in

two

parts,

complete

with

special

mechanical

details

to

allow

the

front-con-

trol

panel

to

be

detached.

The

final

unit

is

also

ar-

ranged

so

that

it

can

be

removed

from

the

rear

panel.

VOX

operation

is

also

‘available.

The

transceiver

has

provision

for

connection

of

VOX-3

obtained

from

KENWOOD

as

optional

accessory.

OPERATING

LOCATION

As

with

any

solid-state

electronic

equipment,

the

place

of

use

must

be

discriminated

with

the

TS-600,

in

order

to

avoid

subjecting

to

extremes

of

ambient

condi-

tions.

A

well-ventilated,

dry

place,

where

the

transceiver

will

not

be

exposed

to

direct

sunlight,

should

be

selected.

The

TS-600

has

a

heat

sink

in

its

rear

panel;

be

sure

to

install

the

transceiver

so

that

there

is

a

proper

clearance

at

the

rear

and

bottom.

For

better

heat

dissipation,

keep

it

away

from

a

wall.

This

precaution

also

applies

when

the

transceiver

is

operated

on

the

companion’s

seat

in

a

car.

:

When

you

wish

to

use

the

transceiver

in

a

car,

you

may

put

it

on

the

seat

but

sure

to

secure

some

heat

dis-

sipating

clearance

under

and

behind

it

and

to

make

proper

provisions

for

protecting

it

against

shocks.

Set

the

By

setting

the

METER

switch

to

the

CEN

position,

the

meter

func-

tions

as

a

center

meter

(center

freauency

indicated).

Turn

the

MAIN

dial

so

that

the

center

meter

indicates

“0”

while

receiving

the

other

party’s

signal.

In

this

way,

the

transmit

frequency

will

coincide

with

the

receive

frequency.

Next,

set

the

METER

switch

to

the

S

position

and

the

meter

will

indicate

the

strength

of

the

incoming

signal.

If,

in

this

case,

the

meter

pointer

fluctuates

in

response

to

the

sound

in

the

speaker,

turn

the

MAIN

dial

a

little

(a

few

kHz)

in

either

direction

until

the

meter

indication

is

stabilized

(meter

is

stabilized

if

no

fading

exists).

Since

the

TS-600

is

so

designed

that

the

IF

circuit

for

SSB

forms

a

part

of

the

‘“’S’”’

meter

indication

circuit

for

FM,

the

‘’S”

provides

logarithmic

indications

for

FM

waves

and

is

free

from

saturation

even

when

the

input

signal

strength

is

very

high,

thus

eliminating

the

need

for

calibra-

tion

for

each

mode

of

operation.

Since

the

IF

band

is

wide

in

FM

mode,

a

slight

devia-

tion

of

frequency

does

not

affect

the

reception.

In

transmit-

ting

operation,

however,

the

other

party

could

be

using

a

fixed

channel.

Because

of

this

possibility,

it

is

advisable

that

you

“zero

in’’

your

frequency

to

that

of

the

other

party

by

properly

setting

the

MAIN

dial

in

the

manner

that

the

center

meter

pointer

may

deflect

up

to

the

center

space.

If

the

“S’

meter

continues

to

fluctuate

or

if

satis-

factory

audio

output

is

not

available,

if

is

very

likely

that

the

other

party

is

sending

the

message

on

SSB.

You

can

easily

check

this

by

turning

the

MODE

switch

to

USB

or

LSB

position.

SSB

Mode

Of

the

single

sideband

mode,

USB

is

traditionally

more

often

used than

LSB.

As

far

as

the

operating

tech-

nique

is

concerned,

there

is

no

difference

between

two.

Generally,

the

“zero

technique

in

SSB

mode

re-

quires

a

little

experience.

A.

Discrimination

between

SSB

and

FM

(1)

Use

of

“’S’’

Meter

If

the

‘‘S’’

meter

indication

is

steady

(meter

pointer

almost

stops),

the

incoming

signal

is

FM;

otherwise,

it

is

SSB.

(2)

Use

of

MODE

Switch

lf

a

clear

signal

is

heard

at

the

FM

position

of

the

MODE

switch,

the

signal

is

FM.

The

sound

in

SSB

mode

is

not

heard

at

this

position

of

the

switch.

(3)

Use

of

Beat

Noise

In

FM

mode,

a

beat

noise

will

be

heard

between

the

words

of

signals

being

received.

In

SSB

mode,

no

beat

noise

is

heard.

Note:

!n

the

case

of

AM

waves,

a

beat

noise

will

be

heard

during

non-modulation

time

even

in

SSB

mode.

B.

Dial

Setting

When

the

receiving

signal

is

found

to

be

SSB

by

the

above

method

A,

in

USB

first

set

the

MAIN

dial

a

few

kHz

below

the

receiving

frequency

(turn

the

dial

2

or

3

divisions

counterclockwise).

You

will

hear

a

high

pitch

sound

such

as

is

heard

from

a

magnetic

recording

tape

set

in

the

fast-

forward

mode.

Turn

the

dial

clockwise

for

higher

frequency

and

the

sound

will

become

clearer.

Set

the

dial

at

the

posi-

tion

where

the

sound

is

heard

most

clearly

(this

is

the

““zero

in”

point).

Note:

1

The

“zero

in”

point

can

be

easily

located

because

the

sound

loses

its

clarity

suddenly

when

the

dial

Passes

away

from

the

“’zero

in”

point.

If

a

clear

sound

cannot

be

heard

even

by

following

the

above

procedure,

it

may

be

an

indication

that

the

signal

is

LSB.

Set the

MODE

switch

to

LSB

position.

In

this

case,

the

method

of

setting

the

MAIN

dial

should

be

performed

in

reverse

order.

Note:

1.

If

the

frequency

of

the

other

party

is

deviated

after

the

“zero

in”

point

has

been

obtained,

set

the

RIT

switch

to

ON

and

adjust

the

RIT

knob.

2.

When

the

RIT

feature

is

used,

the

receiving

fre-

quency

will

be

deviated

from

the

transmitting

fre-

quency.

Therefore,

the

RIT

knob

must

be

set

to

“O"

or

the

RIT

switch

to

OFF

before

you

start

to

transmit

again.

AM

Mode

AM

waves

cannot

be

demodulated

in

FM

mode;

also,

they

will

be

heard

as

a

continuous

beat

noise

in

SSB

mode.

Optimum

reception

of

AM

signal

is

secured

by

turning

the

transceiver

in

such

a

way

as

to

maximize

the

deflection

of

the

“‘S’

meter

pointer.

Since

the

bandwidth

of

the

receiver

crystal

filter

is

somewhat

narrow

because

this

filter

is

primarily

for

SSB

reception,

the

sound

output

of

the

speaker

may

have

its

high

pitch

components

suppressed.

This

can

be

remedied

by

shifting

the

receive

frequency

a

little

by

using

the

RIT

knob.

The

same

effect

can

be

produced

by

means

of

the

MAIN

dial

but

the

use

of

this

dial

for

that

purpose

is

not

recommendable

because,

should

you

do

so,

you

will

not

be

able

to

“zero

in’

your

transmit

frequency

to

the

frequency

of

the

other

party.

Where

your

transceiver

and

that

of

the

other

party

are

both

TS-600,

it

should

be

noted

that,

in

AM

mode,

the

transmit

carrier

frequency

is

10.7006

MHz

which

is

lower

than

the

receive

carrier

frequency

by

600

Hz.

Accordingly,

you

first

‘‘zero

in’’

your

frequency

to

that

of

the

other

party

by

adjusting

your

MAIN

dial

and

send

out

the

signal,

to

which

the

other

party

will

respond

after

possibly

changing

his

frequency.

If

he

should

do

so,

the

pointer

of

your

‘’S”

meter

then

would

deflect

down

from

the

initial

maximum

level

indication;

this

drop

must

not

be

interpreted

as

a

sign

of

trouble.

In

such

a

case,

you

are

expected

to

re-match

your

frequency

to

the

new

incom-

ing

frequency

by

using

your

RIT

knob

with

the

RIT

switch

set

to

ON

(refer

to

Fig.

4

on

page

TRANSMISSION

Before

transmitting,

perform

all

the

necessary

pro-

cedures

for

optimum

reception.

Make

sure

that

the

radio

waves

you

have

selected

does

not

interfere

with

other

radio

stations.

Adjust

the

controls

and

knobs

(DRIVE

knob,

micro-

phone

VR,

etc.)

for

transmission

of

good

quality

signals.

Connect

a

50-ohm

dummy

load

or

antenna

to

the

trans-

ceiver

before

starting

to

adjust

the

various

controls.

The

use

of

dummy

load

is

recommended

because

this

prevents

the

emission

of

disturbing

signals.

Use

the

dummy

load,

which

is

sized

to

dissipate

about

20

watts

of

transmitter

power.

The

tuning

procedure

should

be

completed

within

the

least

time

possible

from

the

viewpoint

of

the

life

of

the

transceiver.

Set

the

controls

and

knobs

as

shown

in

Repeat

this

manner

a

few

times.

The

foregoing

procedure

should

be

carried

out

rapidly,

without

unnecessary

long

delay

at

each

step.

If

the

tele-

graphic

key

device

has

already

been

connected

to

the

transceiver

during

adjustments,

the

device

should

be

set

in

the

“key-down”

condition.

Having

adjusted

the

transceiver

as

above,

you

are

now

ready

to

use

the

key

for

CW

com-

munication.

CW

transmissions

are

automatically

monitored

through

the

speaker

of

the

transceiver.

The

audio

gain

of

the

sidetone

can

be

adjusted

with

the

knob

when

the

top

lid

of

the

transceiver

case

is

removed.

(See

Fig.

6.)

Other

Modes

When

the

transceiver

is

properly

adjusted

for

opera-

tion

in

CW

mode,

it is

ready

for

use

in

other

modes

(FM,

LSB,

USB

and

AM).

Connect

the

microphone

and

speak

after

shifting

the

STANDBY

switch

to

SEND

position.

Your

voice

will

now

be

transmitted.

Microphone

gain

adjustment

for

FM

and

SSB

(USB,

LSB)

can

be

made

by

the

gain

adjusters

which

become

accessible

when

the

top

lid

of

the

transceiver

case

is

remov-

ed.

The

optimum

setting

position

of

these

adjusters

is

about

the

midway

position

of

their

turning

range

(see

Fig.

6).

The

microphone

gain

should

preferably

be

reduced

as

small

as

possible

to

assure

good

quality

of

transmission.

PTT

(push-to-talk)

Operation

By

connecting

the

supplied

microphone

or

any

other

microphone

equipped

with

PTT

switch,

the

transceiver

is

readily

used

for

PTT

operation.

For

communication,

depress

PTT

switch

with

STANDBY

switch

left

in

the

FREQUENCY

CALIBRATION

(Fig.

7)

To

read

correct

frequencies,

the

MAIN

dial

must

be

calibrated

previously

by

using

the

100

kHz

marker

unit

built

in

the

transceiver.

The

marker

unit

is

operative

when

the

CAL

switch

is

set

to

ON.

During

the

operation

of

the

marker

unit,

the

higher

harmonics

can

be

received

over

the

entire

band

exactly

at

100

kHz

intervals.

In

this

instance,

the

RF

input

circuit

(relay)

is

deenergized

and,

therefore,

external

waves

are

scarcely

received.
