FULL, CONTINUOUS 100 kHz ~ 1999.8 MHz COVERAGE WITH ALL MODES

The IC-R9000L is an all-mode, super wide-band receiver that continuously covers a frequency range of 100 KHz to 1999.8 MHz. Many parts of the world are now accessible. Tune in world news agencies that use FAX and RTTY, aircraft, marine and business contacts, emergency services, government, satellite, amateur, CB (Citizen's Band) and numerous other stations near your home or on the other side of the world.

Some versions do not cover the entire range.

MULTI-FUNCTIONAL LCD MONITOR

Icom's advanced multi-functional LCD monitor is built into the IC-R9000L. Receive frequencies, modes, and additional useful data are displayed for your operating convenience. The LCD monitor has the following outstanding features:

• SPECTRUM SCOPE FOR VISUAL SIGNAL CON-FIRMATION

At a glance, you can check relative signal strengths of nearby receive frequencies. The span of the spectrum scope can be selected for ±25, ±50 or ±100 kHz according to your needs.

• MEMORY LIST

Using the memory list screen, you can see the contents of 10 memory channels at once. Memory channels can be rolled for viewing other memory channels.

• TERMINAL MONITOR

This screen allows you to monitor RTTY or packet radio on the LCD monitor. ASCII(RS-232C level) code date from RTTY terminal unit or TNC (Terminal Node Controller) can be monitored.

A total of 1000 memory channels store frequencies, mode, filter width and tuning step increments. 1000 memory channels are grouped in 10 memory banks (each 100-digit channel numbers). You can use different memory banks according to station type, frequency ranges, or whatever your preference.

By using the memory list screen, many more convenient functions are provided: up to 8 character notes for your reference; the advanced, super convenient memory editor function easily moves, copies and deletes the memory contents.

SUPER-HIGH FREQUENCY STABILITY

1000 MEMORY CHANNELS STORING

REQUIRED FREQUENCIES

Another Icom achievement is the IC-R9000L's very high frequency stability in the difficult-to-manage GHz range. Frequency stability is ±0.25 ppm^* in ranges greater than 30 MHz and ±25 Hz^* in ranges less than 30 MHz.

*0°C~+50°C;+32°F~+122°F

INSTALLATIONS

4-1 UNPACKING

4-2 SELECTING LOCATION

4-3 ANTENNA

After unpacking, immediately describe any damage to the delivering carrier or dealer. Keep the shipping cartons. For a description and diagram of accessory equipment included with the IC-R9000L, see UNPACKING on the inside front cover.

Select a location for the receiver with space for thorough air circulation and access to the front and rear panels. Keep away from extreme heat, cold, vibrations and electromagnetic sources.

Antennas play a very important role in receiver operation. If the antenna is poor, your receiver cannot give you the best performance.

The IC-R9000L requires at least 3 antennas for full coverage 100 kHz ~ 2000 MHz. Select an antenna, such as a wellmatched 50 Ω antenna and feedline. When you wish to use a long wire antenna for short wave bands, use one as long as possible (at least 10 m, 32.8 ft).

4-4 GROUNDING

To prevent accidents involving electricity and interference from a transceiver, ground the receiver through the [GND] terminal on the rear panel.

For best results, connect a heavy gauge wire or strap to a cold water pipe or long earth-sunk copper rod. Make the distance between the [GND] terminal and ground as short as possible.

1) Slide the nut, washer, rubber gasket and clamp over the coaxial cable. Cut the end of the cable evenly.
2) Strip the cables and fold the braid back over the clamp as shown at left.
- The clamp end should be flush with end of the vinyl jacket.
- Evenly trim the braid end.
3) Soft solder the center conductor. Install the center conductor pin and solder it.
Carefully slide the plug body into place aligning the center conductor pin on the cable. Tighten the nut onto the plug body.
- Be sure the center conductor is the same height as the plug body.
Slide the coupling ring over the coaxial cable. Strip the cable jacket only and soft solder. Keep the jacket for soft soldering.
2) Strip the cable as shown in the diagram at left. Tin the center conductor the entire length of the exposed braid.
3) Slide the connector body over the cable and solder as shown at left.
4) Screw the coupling ring onto the connector body.

4-6 HANDLES AND STANDS

• RACK MOUNTING HANDLES

Remove the 4 screws from both sides of the front panel, then attach the rack mounting handles to the sides of the receiver using the unpacked screws.

• RUBBER STANDS

Tech Talk from Icom

Q. What is AFC?
A. AFC means Automatic Frequency Control. The AFC circuit automatically compensates for a frequency when a receive frequency drifts or goes off frequency.

When the receiver receives an off frequency from the center of an FM signal, the received audio signals are distorted. The discriminator circuit outputs voltage which is different when the center frequency is received.

The AFC circuit in the IC-R9000L detects the output voltage from the discriminator circuit and applies the voltage to the CPU to change N-data for the PLL circuit. N-data will be changed until the center frequency is received.

Therefore, the operating frequency of the IC-R9000L is automatically adjusted to the center of a receive frequency by the AFC circuit.

7-3 AUTOMATIC GAIN CONTROL (AGC)

7-4 NOISE BLANKER

Tech Talk from Icom

Q. Why does the receiver need AGC?

A. AGC is necessary to output signals constantly from the speaker regardless of the strength of incoming signals.

Signals of varying strengths enter the receiver circuit through the antenna connector. In SSB or CW mode especially, signal strength changes a lot from the wave characteristics.

AGC reduces the receiver gain when a strong signal is received, preventing distortion of speaker output. After strong signals disappear the receiver gain returns to the original gain. AGC automatically controls the receiver gain.

AGC holds audio output constant during fluctuations in signal strength. AGC keeps irritating background noise from being heard during the short pauses in speech.

OFF POSITIONS:

Used when receiving a very weak signal located near stronger signals. In this case, the [RF GAIN] control is useful for reducing receive gain.

The S-meter does not move when the AGC is set to OFF.
The received audio may be distorted when a strong signal is received.

FAST POSITION:

Normally used when receiving a signal with short interval fading such as in CW or FSK mode, or when searching for a signal with the main dial.

SLOW POSITION:

Normally used when receiving a signal in SSB mode.

In FM, WFM or AM mode, use the "SLOW" or "FAST" positions.

The noise blanker effectively reduces interference from pulse-type noise such as car ignition systems and wide pulse-type noise known as "woodpecker" noise.

1) Push the [NB] switch ON.
2) Adjust the [NB LEVEL] control as required depending on the noise level.
To suppress "woodpecker" noise and other wide pulse-type noise, push the [NAR/WIDE] switch ON ("WIDE" is set).

NOTE: If you turn the [NB LEVEL] control too far clockwise, the audio output from the speaker may be distorted.

AGC "slow" or "fast" selects the return speed of the receiver gain from the reduced gain to the original gain. By holding the receiver gain for short periods, AGC constantly emits receive signals from the speaker and signals can be comfortably heard.

One aspect of AGC is that very weak signals located near stronger signals may be blocked when the AGC is set in the "slow" or "fast" position. AGC is therefore equipped with an OFF position for times when you wish to receive very weak signals without reducing receiver gain.

(5) SCANNING WITH THE SPECTRUM SCOPE SCREEN

Scanning restarts a few seconds after stopping when a signal not including audio or voice components is received.

• Turn ON the [VSC] switch to activate the VSC function.


SWITCH	OPERATION
[OFF]	Scanning does not resume while a signal is received. Resumes approx. 3 seconds after the signal disappears.
[A]	Resumes scanning several seconds ^* after scanning stops. Scanning stops for several seconds ^* even if the signal disappears.
[B]	Resumes scanning several seconds* after scanning stops. Scanning resumes approx. 3 seconds after the signal disappears.
[∞]	Cancels scanning when a signal is received.

*The [DELAY TIME] control adjusts delay time 3 ~ 20 seconds (until 30 sec. when the [REC SPEECH] switch is turned ON).

When a signal is received, the IC-R9000L controls the tape running of a tape recorder through the remote jack on both the IC-R9000L and the tape recorder. You can record the received signal even if you have left the receiver. See p. 27 for connection information.

Scanning can operate using the spectrum scope screen. However, the scope screen is automatically in the "HOLD" condition while scanning. The "HOLD" condition is canceled when scanning stops.

Tech Talk from Icom

Q: How does the IC-R9000L (Voice Scan Control) differ from former VSCs?
A: The IC-R9000L detects audio components in receive signals differently.

The IC-R9000L VSC detects both audio signal components and a variation of the received audio tone. Former VSCs detected only receive signals whether they included audio signal components or not.

Therefore, older receivers equipped with former VSCs do not resume scanning when they receive a signal modulated with no variation of the audio signal. Carrier waves with no audio signal or no variation of audio signals are always unwanted signals.

The IC-R9000L, however, resumes scanning when it receives unwanted signals such as those mentioned above. The VSC turns ON because the IC-R9000L VSC detects variation of the audio signal.

The VSC starts to sample the received signal for one second when the scan stops. If the received signal includes audio signals and the tone of the audio signals changes, the scan stops on the frequency.

The new VSC system is therefore very useful for auto memory write scan or audio recording with a tape recorder during scanning.

Tech Talk from Icom

Q: Why is it so difficult to increase scan speed?
A: The most important factor determining scanning speeds is the PLL lockup time. The faster the lockup time the faster the scanning speed.

However, when lockup times increase, the quality of VCO output signals (C/N) decreases. Decreased signal quality means the scan may not stop when a signal is received. Lockup times and VCO signal quality therefore work against each other.

How to solve the problem? Icom found a way. By using the DDS (Direct Digital Synthesizer) in the PLL circuit, the PLL creates a very short lockup time.

Using the DDS, Icom succeeded in providing faster scanning speeds without decreasing the quality of VCO output signals. The scanning speed in the IC-R9000L is 13 channels/second or more – a speed at least twice as fast as former Icom equipment (not equipped with the DDS system). And you can be certain that the IC-R9000L's scan will stop when a signal is received.

While operating auto memory write scan.

Auto memory write scan operates in the same way as programmed scan. However, when a signal is received, the received frequency and time are automatically written in a memory channel in the 900 ~ 999 range.

The starting channel for memory writing is selectable; scanning clears all memory channels in the 900 ~ 999 range then writing starts from memory channel 900, or scanning keeps programmed memory channel then starts writing from the lowest blank memory channel.

Once a frequency is written into a memory channel, the frequency is not rewritten during scan operation.

1) Set the programmed scan edge. See p. 47 Section 9 2 (1) SETTING PROGRAMMED SCAN EDGES.
2) Select the desired resume condition. See p. 46 Section9 1 (3) SCAN RESUME CONDITION.

11-6 CPU RESETTING

(1) LOGIC CHECK SCREEN

LOGIC CHECK SCREEN

(2) DIRECT CPU RESETTING

[POWER]

The LCD monitor may occasionally display erroneous information (e.g., when first applying power). This may be caused externally by static electricity or other factors.

If this problem should occur, turn OFF power. Wait a few seconds and turn ON again. If the problem contunues, check the internal CPU and RAM IC chips using the logic check screen.

The logic check screen tests a main CPU, sub CPU and RAM IC chips for correct functioning.

1) Turn OFF the [POWER] switch.
2) Push and hold the [SPEECH] switch then turn the [POWER] switch ON. Then release the [SPEECH] switch. The logic check screen appears approx. 10 sec. after power is ON.
3) When the screen shows "Passed" to all check point, push [F-6] "MENU."
- The menu 1 screen is displayed.
4) If another comment is displayed on the screen, push [F-1] "RESET."

CAUTION: When pushing [F-1] "RESET," all memory information is erased.

The receiver checks the following items on the logic check screen:

INDICATOR	DESCRIPTION
RAM MAIN	8 k bytes RAM for MAIN CPU.
V-RAM	128 k bytes V-RAM for LCDC.
SUB CONTROL	Control line between MAIN CPU and SUB CPU.
SUB DATA	Data transferring between MAIN CPU and SUB CPU.
SUB INTERRUPT	Interrupt data line to SUB CPU.
Mch No.	Indicating memory channel number.
DATA	The decimal and width of all memory channels.

The internal CPU can be reset without displaying the logic check screen. Use direct CPU resetting when you wish to erase all memory channels.

1) Turn [POWER] OFF.
2) Push and hold the [CLEAR] switch then turn [POWER] ON.
3) The CPU is now reset and the menu 1 screen is displayed.

ADJUSTMENT

12-1 FREQUENCY CALIBRATION

12-2 MAIN DIAL BRAKE ADJUSTMENT

A very accurate frequency counter is necessary to calibrate the frequency of the IC-R9000L. However, a simple calibration may be performed by receiving radio station WWV, or other standard frequency signals.

The calibration adjusts the reference oscillator. Each band calibration is therefore unnecessary.

1) Set USB mode.
2) Set the operating frequency to the standard frequency station minus 1 kHz.
- Use a standard frequency below 30 MHz.

EXAMPLE:

When using WWV (10.00000 MHz), adjust the operating frequency to 9.99900 MHz. 10.00000 MHz – 0.00100 MHz (1 kHz) = 9.99900 MHz

3) Turn ON the [CALIBRATOR] switch.
4) Adjust the [CALIBRATOR] pot for a zero beat.
- Zero beat means that two signals are exactly the same frequency, resulting in a single audio tone being emitted.

When you can receive a very accurate station above 1 GHz, calibration can also be performed using the spectrum scope screen. Use FM or AM mode when using the spectrum scope screen.

The tension of the main dial may be adjusted to suit your operating needs.

1) Use a philips head screw driver.
2) The brake adjustment screw is located on the bottom of the receiver cabinet below the main dial.
3) Turn the brake adjustment screw to a comfortable tension level while turning the main dial continuously and evenly in one direction.

12-3 OPTIONAL VOICE SYNTHESIZER UNIT

■ UNIT INSTALLATION

■ VOICE SYNTHESIZER OPERATION

An optional UT-36 VOICE SYNTHESIZER UNIT announces the operating frequency when the [SPEECH] switch is pushed or when scanning stops.

1) Disconnect the AC power cable.
2) Open the hatch cover on the top cover.
3) Connect 2 connectors (3 pins and 5 pins) inside the IC-R9000L to the UT-36.
4) Remove the protective paper attached to the bottom of the UT-36 to expose the adhesive strip.
5) Attach the UT-36 properly as shown in the diagram at left.
6) Set the language, speech speed and speech level as shown in the diagram at left.
7) Close the hatch cover.
