Split Frequency Reception By Using an External Sub Receiver

By connecting another transceiver (TS-890S or TS-590S/ TS-590SG) as a sub receiver, and then using the split transfer
A function, the split transmission frequency information is transferred to the sub receiver, and dual band reception can
be assisted. The standby behavior to mute the sub receiver during transmission is also supported.
TS-890S
To use the split transfer A function, select "A (TX/RX)" in Menu 7-04 "Quick Data Transfer", and then select "115200[bps]"
in Menu 7-00 "Baud Rate (COM Port)".
*When the sub receiver is TS-590S/ TS-590SG, a firmware update is required.

CW/RTTY/PSK Decoding/Encoding Available Only for the Main Unit

Decoding/Encoding of CW Morse Code

The TS-890S has a function to display the contents communicated in CW Morse code. Morse transmission can also
be done by text entry using a USB keyboard. Use of Morse transmission using fixed phrase transmission by message
memory and using a paddle is also available.
For Morse transmission of the text entered from a USB keyboard, turning on the quick mode immediately encodes the
entered text. To encode the entered text after the text is confirmed by the text string buffer on the lower screen, turn the
quick mode off beforehand, and press [Enter] on a USB keyboard or F4 [START] on the main unit to start encoding.
The Morse code entered by using an electronic key or paddle is also converted into text and displayed. By turning the
break-in function off beforehand, the TS-890S is also a Morse code practice device.
The TS-890S also has a filter switch dedicated to decoding (Off/Normal/Narrow), a function to send decoded characters
to a PC, and a communication log function.
