4 ) Cw Operation - Kenwood TS-530S Instruction Manual

(3) XIT
By using XIT, transmit frequency can be shifted independent
of receive frequency.
With the XIT switch ON, the XIT is controlled by the RIT/XIT
knob and transmit frequency can be shifted by about
k 2
kHz. When both the RIT and XIT switches are ON, both
receive and transmit are shifted without adjusting the main
tuning.

set the MODE switch to CW, and set the stand-by switch to
SEND for transmitting.
CW transmission is automatically monitored through the
transceiver's speaker. Sidetone audio gain can be adjusted
through the opening in the bottom cover.

OPERATION WITHOUT CW FILTERS
To receive CW. set the IF SHIFT control t o its center position
and the RIT switch t o OFF. Adjust the main tuning for about
an 8 0 0 Hz beat and your transmit frequency will be tuned
(zeroed) to the transmit frequency of the station you are
receiving. If the
0
beat cannot be obtained easily, adjust the
IF shift knob. then return the mode switch to CW. The
transmit frequency of the unit is adjusted to that of the mate
station. You may now adjust the RIT for a pitch which suits
your preference. If interference is encountered, adjust the IF
SHIFT. For more convenient and effective CW operation,
use of the optional CW filters is recommended.
OPERATION WITH C W FILTERS (OPTION)
Set the IF SHIFT to its center position and the RIT OFF.
Adjust the main tuning for maximum S-meter deflection.
Receive signal pitch will be about 8 0 0 Hz, indicating correct
tuning. For optional CW filter information see page 23.
KEY CONNECTION (Fig. 4-10)
Your key should be connected as illustrated in Fig. 4-10.
When using an electronic keyer. make sure that polarity is
correct. Use shielded line from the key to transceiver.
NOTE:
When using an electronic keyer, set polarity of the keyer for
NEGATIVE keying.

SEMI-BREAK-IN OPERATION
The TS-530s has a built-in side-tone oscillator to permit
semi-break-in operation. besides the normal CW operation.
~ u r i n ~ semi-break-in operation, the transceiver is set in
transmit mode when the key is depressed, and returns to
receive mode when the key is released. For semi-break-in
operation. place the STANDBY switch to REC and turn the
VOX GAIN control ON. Adjust the DELAY control for your
preference.
