Thank you for choosing the KENWOOD TS-570 series.
This Intelligent Digital Enhanced Communications
System was developed by a team of engineers
determined to continue the tradition of excellence and
innovation in KENWOOD HF transceivers.
This transceiver includes a 16-bit Digital Signal
Processing (DSP) unit to process audio frequencies. By
taking maximum advantage of DSP technology the
transceiver gives you enhanced interference reduction
capabilities and improves the quality of audio that you
transmit. You will find the differences when you fight
QRM and QRN in the new solar cycle. As you learn
how to use this transceiver, you also will find
KENWOOD is pursuing "user friendliness". For
example, each time you change the Menu No. in Menu
mode, you will see, on the display, scrolling messages
that tell what you are selecting.
Though user friendly, this transceiver is technically
sophisticated and some features may be new to you.
Consider this manual to be a personal tutorial from the
designers. Allow the manual to guide you through the
learning process now, then act as a reference in the
coming years.
FEATURES
Taking full advantage of DSP technology, this
transceiver
·
Provides high performance receive filters.
·
Enhances the Beat Cancel and Noise Reduction
tools.
·
Allows total customization of transmitted audio
through the use of functions such as the Transmit
Equalizer.
·
Enables Automatic Zero-beating for CW operation.
To pursue user friendliness, this transceiver
·
When in Menu mode, scrolls messages to tell you
what you are selecting.
·
Allows you to quickly and easily save the current
transceiver settings in Quick memory.
·
Is equipped with a large, easy to read LCD display.
WRITING CONVENTIONS FOLLOWED
The writing conventions described below have been
followed to simplify instructions and avoid unnecessary
repetition. This format is less confusing for the reader.
Reviewing the following information now will reduce
your learning period. That means less time will be
spent reading this manual; more time will be available
for operating.
Furthermore, a system of advisories is used as follows:
WARNING!
Possibility of personal injury
CAUTION:
Possibility of equipment damage
Note:
Important information or operating tip
Note:
Basic procedures are numbered sequentially to guide you
step-by-step. Additional information pertaining to a step, but not
essential to complete the procedure, is provided in bulleted form
following many steps.
THANK YOU
