A couple of my friends are preparing for an expedition for CQWW and are testing their config. They have 2x TS-590 transceivers and a pair of yagi antennas in close proximity of each other (about 75'
Thanks Mike... that confirms my suspicions. I'd also guess the Dallas time chip has an internal battery for the clock. Those Dallas chips seem to run forever. I'd wonder if anyone has opened one up t
Hello Ron, I took a couple and I'll send them via your address in a little bit. Best regards, Ralph Howes W8BVH Is there anyone on the list, who was at the Ten Tec hamfest last weekend, who has a pic
I did 3 resets now ok got am fm now. when you update to the new chip for cw do you lose am and fm I did. _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http
I was asked as well as challenged as pertaining to my comments and suggestions as related to grounding for lightning protection as applied to the station power supply and or power source. To further
I am thinking that if these guys who are having trouble were to add a set of BP filters it would go a long ways towards keeping the front ends of the radios from going into gain compression. Plus if
I was reading the contesting section of the ON4UN low band DX'ing book and see that a pair of 1/4 wave stubs separated by a 1/4 wave of coax makes for a highly effective bandpas filter. If they have
Watch this Ten Tec video if you haven't yet. It show you how to switch between original mode ( with AM/FM) and new CW decode mode. http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/829068 rOn _________________________
If the noise is broadband then it passes through the bandpass filters. I've found that notch type filters are typically more selective but more difficult to use. Thus is the better approach to use ba
Rick I have not read all on this topic that has been posted BUT could the noise be entering the 590 via the power supply? RF entering the DC supply could be rectified and enter the 590 and play havo
Question... why doesn't Bob, Rick or someone else post a query about all of this on the TS-590 Yahoo group? There are some technically-oriented folks on that group, and I thought that Rick was a memb
Hi all...been busy flying planes the past few days...but I saw the comments about the Kenwood 590's and how they are making noise on transmit..lest anyone forget...there are Rcvr specs... and TenTec
I did not see the other posts regarding the bandpass filters. Have you considered taking this to the KenwoodTS-590 on yahoo? Or are you just wanting to bad mounth a kenwood on a ten-tec forum? 73, Do
My comment regarding bandpass filters and more specifically band reject filters applies to HF much like duplexers on a VHF repeater. A notch at the receiver frequency is inserted on the transmit side
That does not sound like good advice. Without more than your "memory" of a possible problem you sorta, but not really recall... that is a pretty draconian solution for what might be a simple problem.
We are simply asking for experience with the TS-590. I'm thinking the TS-590 is a random noise generator! After receiving information I have received (off-reflector) I honestly believe that. OK... p
James, I DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM. One of my customers does, and he answers his emails once per day. My last email from him, yesterday, said he would bring in a K2 and TS-850 and try with those two rig
That does not sound like good advice. You obviously have no previous experience with EXACTLY this same problem. I have lots of experience with it and it was ALWAYS the radio. The problem began when t
Rick -- we need to take this off the TenTec list. It really does not belong here. Calling me names and measuring my purported ignorance is something we should slog out in private. And the bulk of the
