(D PHONES JACK

The headphone jack allows use of 4-to-l 6-ohm (or greater) headphones. HS-6, HS-5, HS-4 optional headphones provide optimum results. Stereo-type headphones can also be sued. This will disable the internal and external speaker.
® PROC (processor) switch
During SSB transmission, the speech processor may be used to increase "talk power".

® VOX (VOICE OPERATED TRANSMIT) SWITCH

This function is used for SSB VOX or CW semi-break-in ­operation. In the MAN (manual) position, the transceiver is keyed by either the standby switch or the microphone PTT switch. For VOX operation, the standy switch remains in REC. (See page 11.)

(D METER SWITCH

During transmission, the meter switch determines meter function. The switch selects between: ALC
....................
The meter monitors the output of the final
stage power amplifier during transmis sion. During SSB operation, adjust the MIC control so that the meter pointer is within the ALC zone. Similarly, adjust the CAR control for CW operation.
1C....................... The meter monitors final stage collector
current. 12 ~ 19A is normal, 17A typical.
@ FIX (fixed channel) SWITCH
The TS-130SE has a built-in fixed channel oscillator (crystals are user-provided, optional) which is activated by the FIX switch for fixed channel or VFO operation.
(D) SUBDIAL
The subdial is calibrated from 0 to 500. It is driven from the
main tuning knob to indicate the transceiver's operating frequency.

® MAIN TUNING CONTROL

This control is used to select the desired operating frequen
cy. The scale on the control knob is calibrated at 1 kHz in
tervals, allowing accurate tuning. For exact frequency, read
the Digital Display.

(0) RIT INDICATOR

This light emitting diode indicates the RIT circuit is ON.

(Q) IF SHIFT CONTROL

By using this control, the IF crystal filter center frequency can be shifted ±1 kHz, allowing adjustment of tone quality, or eliminating interference from adjacent frequencies. For normal operation, this control should be set to the center "0" position (detent).
@
RIT CONTROL
When the RIT circuit is ON, this will vary receive frequency
by about ±1.5 kHz. When the control is set to the "0"
center position, there is no frequency shift.

(3) CAR (CARRIER LEVEL) CONTROL

This control is used to adjust the carrier output level and is effective only during CW operation. Adjust the control so
the ALC meter indication is within the ALC zone. For "QRP" operation, reduce carrier insertion.

(0) MIC (MICROPHONE GAIN) CONTROL

This adjusts mic amplifier gain during SSB operation. Again, adjust the control so the ALC meter indication is within the ALC zone.
When this control is set to the CAL ON position, the built-in calibrator is activated, permitting calibration of the receiver dial scale at 25 kHz intervals.

(0) AF GAIN (AUDIO GAIN) CONTROL

This control adjusts the receiver audio amplifier gain. Volume of the received signal increases as the control is turned clockwise.

@ RF GAIN CONTROL

This adjusts the receiver section's RF amplifier gain. Turn
the control fully clockwise for maximum gain. Turn counterclockwise to reduce the gain.

(g) BAND SWITCH

This switch selects all Amateur bands from 3.5 — 29.7
MHz. The 10, 18, and 24.5 MHz bands as supplied are
for reception only, and transmission on these frequencies
is not possible. Use the 10 MHz band to receive WWV at
10.0 MHz.
CAUTION: —------------------------------------------------------------------
Do not turn the bandswitch during transmit.

(2) POWER SWITCH

This switches the TS-130SE ON and OFF.
@
NB (NOISE BLANKER) SWITCH
This switch is used to reduce pulsating ignition noises of the type usually emitted from motor vehicles. Power-line, QRM and atmospheric "white" noise will not operate the noise
blanker.

@ RF ATT (ATTENUATOR) SWITCH

With this switch ON, a 20 dB attenuator is inserted in the
antenna circuit, protecting the RF amplifier and mixer from overload on strong input signals.
®
NAR/WIDE switch
This switch selects receive IF bandwidths between narrow
and wide. The WIDE position provides the same IF bandwidth for both CW and SSB. For the NARROW posi
tion, optional filters are available for both CW and SSB.
®
RIT SWITCH
This push switch turns the RIT (Receiver Incremental Tun ing) circuit ON and OFF. With the switch depressed, the cir cuit is activated and the RIT indicator is illuminated, allowing
the receive frequency to be shifted by about ±1.5 kHz in dependent of the transmit frequency by using the RIT con trol. The RIT circuit is turned OFF when the switch is out.

Fig. 4-1 Control and Switch Settings

4.1 RECEPTION

First connect the antenna, microphone and key. Then, set the controls and switches referring to Fig. 4-1. Ascertain that the TS-130SE is ready for operation, then turn the POWER switch ON. The meter, dial scale and digital display will illuminate, indicating the transceiver is in operation. The transceiver is fully solid-state, allowing reception as soon as the POWER switch is turned ON. Advance the AF GAIN control clockwise until some receiver noise is heard from the speaker. Turn the main tuning con trol so the desired signal can be heard clearly.

4.1.1. WWV RECEPTION

To receive WWV at 10 MHz, set the BAND switch to "10" and turn the main tuning control until the subdial reads"0".

4.1.2 RF ATT switch

The input to the receive RF amplifier is attenuated ap proximately 20 dB, providing distortion-free reception. This feature may be used in cases of receiver overload, caused either by a strong local signal, or during weak signal recep tion when a strong adjacent signal may blank the receiver.

4.1.2. NB SWITCH

The TS-130SE has a sophisticated noise blanker designed to reduce ignition-type pulse noise. The noise blanker is par ticularly important for mobile operation. When necessary, activate the noise-blanker by depressing the NB switch ON.

4.1.3. RF GAIN CONTROL (Fig. 4-2)

For normal operation, this control should be turned fully
clockwise for maximum sensitivity. Receive sensitivity is
reduced by turning the control counterclockwise.
Turn CAR and MIC fully counter clockwise
Microphone
Adjust the RF GAIN so the S-meter does not show ex cessive deflection. This minimizes noise during reception and allows the S-meter to indicates signal peak (or a little below that point). Noise is markedly reduced when signal is absent.

4.1.4. RIT CONTROL

By using the RIT (Receiver Incremental Tuning) control, the receive frequency can be shifted by about ±1.5 kHz without changing the transmit frequency.
If the frequency of the station you are working changes, your
receive frequency can be reset by turning the RIT switch ON
and adjusting the RIT control. Adjusting the control
clockwise increases the frequency. The RIT shift can be
checked by the digital display. When first calling another
station, the RIT should be OFF, otherwise your transmit and
receive frequency will not coincide.
Page 10

4.1.5. IF SHIFT CONTROL

The IF SHIFT control is used to shift the passband of the IF filter without changing receive frequency. By turning this
control in either direction, the IF passband is shifted as shown in Fig. 4-3. The IF SHIFT is effective in eliminating interference when the receive signal is superimposed on nearby signals during
operation in both SSB or CW mode.

4.1.7 NAR-WIDE switch operation

For short to medium distance communication, the WIDE
position may be used for both SSB and CW operation. For
DX (long distance) communication, the NAR position will be an advantage in reducing interference. This feature, in combination with the IF SHIFT control, will provide outstanding interference rejection. The receive IF

CAUTION:

-------------------------------------------
Before transmitting, be sure to connect an antenna or dum my load with a VSWR of less than 1.5:1. Never attempt to transmit with the antenna terminal left open.
When testing the transmitter, connect a 50-ohm dummy
load, rated at more than 100W. Refer to Fig. 4-1 for initial control settings. When the TS-130SE is ready for transmission, use the following procedure;

SSB Operation

1 Set the MODE switch to SSB. 2 Meter switch to ALC. 3 Standby switch to SEND. 4 Speak into the microphone and adjust the MIC GAIN for
meter deflection within the ALC zone at signal peaks.
PROC (processor) operation
In DX (long distance) operation, it may be desirable to in creased talk-power by using the speech processor. The speech processor in the TS-130 Series combines an audio compression amplifier with changes in ALC time cons tant to provide extra audio punch to increase average SSB output power, while suppressing sideband splatter. To ac tivate, turn on the PROC switch, and readjust mic gain. Operated as described, destortion will be minimal.
However, tone quality will be affected. It is therefore ad
visable to conduct normal operation with the processor dis abled.
NOTE: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
When a high-output microphone is used, input overload and distortion will result.
To prevent this, use an attenuator in the microphone circuit
as shown below, or connect a 10k —33kS2 resistor (depen ding on microphone used) across the microphone input. (Mic control setting should be approximstely 12 O'clock)

rises, to approximately (122°F) and it ceases to operate when the temperature decreases to normal, ap proximately (104°F). The heat-sink is made of die-cast aluminum and is actually the rear panel. It must be kept clear of surrounding objects, in order that heat will dis sipate easily.
The cooling fan is designed to operate when the heat-sink
temperature is at a specific level, regardless of whether the unit is in transmit or receive mode. Fan life IS approximately 500 hours.
NOTES:-------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the cooling fan starts to operate, determine that ade
quate air flow is possible in the heat-sink area.

4.2.2. MIC GAIN CONTROL (Fig. 4-5)

This control adjusts the microphone input level When using
the TS-130SE in SSB mode, connect a microphone and
set the standby switch to SEND (antenna or dummy load
MUST be connected). Set the meter switch to ALC and speak into the microphone. Adjust the MIC GAIN control so the meter
does not deflect out of the ALC zone at signal peaks.
The TS-130SE accepts either a low or high impedance microphone (500 ii to 50 kii). When using a low impedance microphone (500 ii) the MIC GAIN control should be ad
vanced higher than when a high impedance microphone is
used, while observing the ALC meter.

• ALC (Automatic Level Control)

The ALC monitors the transmitter final stage output to
minimize distortion in your transmitted signal. It automatically adjusts output to an optimum level.
_____________

4.2.1. FINAL STAGE PROTECTION

The TS-130SE features a VSWR protection circuit to protect the final-amplifier transistors. Two different protection circuits are designed into the TS-
130SE.
i) The same VSWR protection method as used in the TS-
130SE. That is, the final-stage transistors are protected by detecting VSWR of the antenna system and automatically lowering transmitter output power if the VSWR is too high.
ii) The heat-sink temperature could rise abnormally during
long transmissions, if the area adjacent to the heat-sink is blocked. In this case, the TS-130SE automatically
returns to the receiving mode, and transmitting is not
11

4.4 SEMI-BREAK-IN OPERATION

Pointer should not deflect beyond ALC zone at signal peaks.
Fig. 4-5 ALC Adjustment

4.3 VOX OPERATION

4.3.1. VOX SWITCH

VOX (voice operated transmit) is used to switch the TS­130SE into transmit mode by your voice. Depress the switch ON and speak into the microphone. The transceiver automatically switches to transmit mode (the MIC control should be adjusted in advance as explained in Item 4.2.2).
Both the send switch and the MIC P.T.T. switch are left in
the REC position.
The TS-130SE has a built-in side-tone oscillator to permit
semi-break-in operation, besides the normal CW operation. During semi-break-in operation, the transceiver is placed in transmit mode when the key is depressed, and returns to receive mode when the key is released. The VOX circuit is activated by the side-tone.
For semi-break-in operation, set the VOX switch ON and the MODE switch to CW. Adjust the VOX GAIN to insure that the transceiver is set in transmit mode whenever the key is depressed. Also, adjust the VOX DELAY for desired hold-in. ANTI VOX acljustment is not required.
4.5 OPERATION WITH A LINEAR
AMPLIFIER
The ACSY connector on the rear panel provides for inter connection with an amplifier. See the amplifier instruction manual to determine whether the linear requires a normally opened or normally closed (during receive) relay contact.
Connect the amplifier control line to either pin 5 (N.C.) or pin 4 (N O. during receive). Connect the Ground (Shield) of the Control Line to Pin 2 and Pin 7. Connect amplifier ALC to
pin 6 of the ACSY connector. The TS-130SE output is quite adequate to drive most amplifiers to full rated output.

4.3.2. VOX GAIN CONTROL

This adjusts the VOX circuit sensitivity. Speak into the
microphone at normal voice levels and adjust the control.
Clockwise increases sensitivity, allowing transmission with a
low voice level. Transceiver operating condition can be checked by the sound from the speaker. When the speaker is silent, the transceiver is in transmit mode.
Note that if the control is advanced too far, the VOX circuit is
"tripped" by ambient noise.

4.3.3. ANTI-VOX CONTROL

This prevents the VOX circuit from being "tripped" by sound from the speaker. Adjust the control so the VOX will not operate at the desired speaker volume level.

4.3.4. VOX DELAY CONTROL

This control adjusts the transmit hold time of the VOX cir
cuit. If the hold time is too short, the transceiver will return to receive mode as soon as you stop talking into the
microphone. This can be eliminated by turning the control
clockwise. Adjust the control for comfortable operation at a
normal rate of speech.

4.6 FIXED CHANNEL OPERATION (Fig. 4-6)

The TS-130SE has a built-in crystal oscillator for fixed-
channel operation. This feature is most useful for commonly
used frequencies, nets, or any situation where crystal­controlled operation is required.
AF GEN UNIT X49-ni0-01
12
Page 13
A fixed channel is available for common use on all bands by installing a crystal in the socket on the AF-GAN unit (X49-
1110-01). The crystal frequency can be computed by the
following formula;
Crystal Frequency (MFIz) = 5.5 MFIz — X

Fig. 4-8 Tuning for CW Operation

4.7.1. OPERATION WITHOUT AN OPTIONAL
CW FILTER
Set the IF SHIFT control to its center position and the RIT
switch OFF Adjust the main tuning control for an 800-Hz
beat note and your transmit frequency will then coincide
with that of your contact station ("zeroed"). During recep tion, the side-tone monitor is activated by pressing down the key (VOX OFF). In this case, listen to the side-tone superim posed on the receive signal and adjust the main tuning for similar side-tone and incoming CW audio tone. By so doing,
transmit frequencies will be zeroed. You may now adjust the RIT for a pitch which suits your preference. If intereference is encountered, adjust the IF SHIFT. For more convenient and effective CW operation, use of the optional YK-88C or YK-88CN CW crystal filter is recommended.

4.7 CW OPERATION (Fig. 4-8)

For CW operation, your transmit frequency should be
"zeroed" to the transmit frequency of your contact station.
Receive frequency is 800 Hz lower than the transmit fre
quency of your contact station, so that his signal is received
as an 800-Hz beat note. This also allows your contact to
receive your signal without having to retune his receiver.
Tuning methods are detailed in the following paragraphs.

4.7.2. OPERATION WITH A CW FILTER

Set the IF SHIFT to its center position and the RIT to OFF. Adjust the main tuning control for maximum deflection of
the S-meter. Receive signal pitch will be about 800 Hz, in
dicating correct tuning.
13

4.7.3. KEY CONNECTION (Fig. 4-9) Your key should be connected as illustrated in Fig. 4-9.
When using an electronic keyer, make sure that polarity is set for positive. Always use shielded line from the key to
transceiver.

4.8 MOBILE OPERATION (Fig. 4-10)

The TS-130SE being compact in design, is ideal for mobile operation. Satisfactory mobile operation is achieved
through proper power and antenna connection, and thought
ful transceiver installation and adjustment.
4.8.1 TS-130SE INSTALLATION Secure the TS-130SE under the dashboard using an op
tional MB-100 mounting bracket as shown in Fig. 4-10. As an alternative, use strapping, making sure that the TS-
130SE will not slip out of place while driving the vehicle. NOTES:
4.8.2. HOW TO HANDLE THE POWER CABLE
When connecting or disconnecting the power cable to or
from the power connector, be sure that the power switch is always in the "OFF" position. Observe polarity of the cable.
The TS-130SE operates on 13.8 VDC, negative ground.
Battery polarity must be correct. The power cord is color
coded:
-----------—----------------------------------------------------------
1. Do not install the TS-130SE near the heater outlet.
2. Allow sufficient space behind the TS-130SE to ensure
CAUTION: Observe battery polarity.

POWER CABLE

red and white ©
black and gray 0
Connect the TS130SE power cable to the battery ter minals, with consideration to current requirements and noise prevention. The maximum current drawn by the TS-130SE reaches to between 18 and 20A when transmitting.
Therefore, the cable should be made as short as possible, us
ing the specified fuse. Also, determine that the power system of the car (including the battery and generator or alternator) will handle the increased load of the TS-130SE.
Route battery and ANTENNA leads away from all high
voltage secondary circuits to prevent ignition noise in terference.

4.8.3. MOBILE ANTENNA (1) Antenna Installation

Use a rugged mount for the mobile antenna because HF
antennas are larger (and have more wind load) and are
heavier than VHF antennas. A bumper mount is recommended for general use. The ground side of the mount must be grounded perfectly to the body of the car since the body itself functions as the ground plane for the mobile antenna. (Refer to Fig. 4-10.)

(2) Coaxial Cable Connection (Fig. 4-10)

When the antenna is mounted on the vehicles bumper, the
coaxial cable from the antenna can be routed through a drain hole in the trunk. When the antenna is roof mounted pass the cable between the body and door. Leave a drip-loop at the lowest point in the cable before entry into the vehicle to prevent water from entering the car.

(3) Antenna Adjustment (Fig. 4-11)

Some mobile antennas are not designed for 50-ohm im pedance. In this case, impedance matching between the antenna and the coaxial cable (50Q) is required. This can be achieved by using an antenna matching device or
coupler.
NOTES; -----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Some cars have a urethande plastic bumper. For such cars, ground the antenna mount to the body.
2. When tuning the newly installed antenna, use following procedure:
Turn the CAR control fully counter-clockwise for
minimum transmit power.
• With the transceiver in transmit mode, raise transmit power output slowly by rotating the CAR control clockwise. The antenna should be adjusted with mi nimum power.
• Transmitting with full power is recommended after the antenna is adjusted for a VSWR below 1.5:1.
3. Antenna installation is critical for successful mobile operation. For further information refer to THE RADIO AMATEUR'S HANDBOOK, RADIO HANDBOOK, or other texts.
The antenna to be used should first be checked with a dip
meter to insure that it is designed for your operating band, then the impedance matching should be checked with an SWR meter. (See Fig. 4-11)
The VSWR should preferably be less than 1.5:1 for satisfac
tory operation. For antenna adjustment refer to the antenna instruction manual.

4.8.4. NOISE REDUCTION

In motor vehicles, ignition noise is generated by the ignition coil or distributor. Other sources of noise include the wiper and heater motors.
Although the TS-130SE is equipped with a noise blanker to minimize ignition noise, it is imperative that some preven tive measures be taken to reduce the noise to the lowest possible level.
15
Page 16

(1) Antenna Location Selection

Since ignition noise is generated by the vehicles engine, the antenna must be installed as far from the engine as possible.
(D If necessary, use an ammeter and/or a voltmeter to
check battery condition.

4.9 FIXED STATION OPERATION

(2) Antenna Matching

In general, mobile antennas have a lower impedance than
50-ohm coaxial cable, resulting in a mismatch between the antenna and the coax. Such trouble can be eliminated by using an antenna tuner between the TS-130SE and the coaxial cable.

(3) Bonding

The component parts of motor vehicles, such as the engine, transmission, muffler system, accelerator, etc., are coupled
to one another at DC and low frequencies, but are isolated at high frequencies. By connecting these parts using heavy, braided ground straps, ignition noise can be reduced. This connection is called "bonding".
(4) Use Ignition Suppressor Cable or Suppressor Spark
Plugs
Noise can be reduced by using spark plugs with internal
resistors, or resistive suppressor ignition cable.
(5) Battery Power Connection
It is recommended that battery power be supplied directly to
the TS-130SE from the battery terminals.
CAUTION:-------------------------------------------------------------------—
Disconnect the TS-130SE before jump-starting or before charging the battery.

(6) Battery Capacity

The power system of a motor vehicle is comprised of a
battery and an alternator (which generates power while the engine is running) to supply current to loads or to charge the
battery.
Since the transceiver draws high current during transmit, care should be excersised so the power system is not
overloaded. When using the transceiver, the following
points should be observed from the viewpoint of battery
maintenance:
(X> Turn the transceiver OFF when the lights, heater, wipers
and other high-draw accessories are used.
(D Avoid transceiver operation when the engine is not run
ning.

4.9.1. Power

The TS-130SE requires more than 18A at 13.8 VDC when
transmitting with full power. Use the model PS-30 power
supply for fixed stations.
For HF fixed-station operation, an antenna specifically designed for amateur operation is recommended. Antenna types include the wire antennas, verticals, rotary beam, and
other antennas. HF antennas are quite large and must be in
stalled to withstand strong wind, heavy rain, etc.
Any antenna used with the TS-130SE should be of 50­ohm impedance and should be connected using an ap
propriate coaxial cable such as RG-8/U.
Impedance matching is important. Impedance mismatching
will result in a high VSWR and power loss, or can cause un wanted harmonic radiation and interference (TVI, BCI).
The impedance match can be checked with an SWR meter.
Generally satisfactory operation is assured when the VSWR
(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) is less than 1.5:1.
For impedance matching between the antenna system and
transceiver, use of the AT-130 Antenna Tuner (option) is
recommended. A rotary beam antenna is very effective for
DX operation in the 14, 21 and 28 MHz bands. (Fig. 4-13)
NOTE: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Protect your equipment — use a lightning arrestor.

4.10 DIGITAL DISPLAY CALIBRATION
(Fig. 4-14)

4.11 ANALOG DIAL CALIBRATION (Fig. 4-15)

Connect the antenna and set the BAND switch to 10. Turn the main tuning dial to about "0" to receive the 10 MHz WWV signal. Adjust the dial until a low-frequency beat is heard. Next, turn on the CAL switch and a marker signal is superimposed on the WWV beat signal. A double beat (two beat signals of high and low freqencies) will now
be heard. While receiving this double beat, adjust the Counter unit trimmer through the reference frequency adjustment access opening (at the side of the TS-130SE so the two beats are
heard as a single beat. This completes calibration of the Digital Display. After calibration turn off the CAL switch.

SECTIONS. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The main dial scale is graduated at 1-kHz intervals. One revolution of the main dial covers 25 kHz. To calibrate the scale, turn the CAL switch ON and in SSB mode zero-beat.
Hold the main tuning knob from rotating and slip the ca libration ring to the nearest major (5 kHz) graduation. The
dial is now calibrated. Note: For exact frequency, read the Digital Display.

5.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

Your TS-130SE has been factory aligned and tested to specification before shipment. Under normal circumstances, the transceiver will operate in accordance with these operating instructions.
If your transceiver fails to work, contact the authorized dealer from whom you purchased it for quick, reliable repair. All adjustable trimmers and coils in your transceiver were preset at the factory and should only be readjusted by a qualified technician with proper test equipment. Attempting service or alignment without factory authoriza tion can void the transceiver's warranty

5.2 INSTALLING THE OPTIONAL FILTERS

1. Using a #2 philips screwdriver, remove the top cover (8 screws). Be careful of the VOX controls, and the speaker lead, which may be unplugged.
2. Remove the bottom cover (7 screws).
3. Remove 7 screws from the IF unit and swing the board up and towards the center of the radio.
4. Using a 45W (or less) soldering pencil, clear the 6 holes for the filter, if they are filled with solder.
Page 18
5. There is no polarity to the filter. Install the filter into its position on the IF unit. Solder the 2 mounting tabs, and the 4 input and output pins to the circuit board.
Solder sparingly, and heat the connections only long enough to insure a good solder joint. Don't overheat
the filter or circuit board.
6. Carefully inspect your soldering. Be certain that all pins are actually soldered, and that you have not soldered across any spots on the board or between any of the pins on the filter. Clip the pins fluse to the board.
7. Replace the IF unit in its place. Make certain no wires will be pinched underneath the board. Replace the 7 screws.
8. Move the connection as illustrated when a CW filter is installed.
9. Reinstall the bottom cover. Reconnect the speaker lead, and reinstall the top cover.
10. Apply power and verify your work. Filter installation is now complete.

5.3 TS-130SE ANALOG DIAL ADJUSTMENT

1. Turn the main dial fully CCW. The red cursor should line up with the VFO start mark on the sub-dial. If it does not, remove the main knob (2mm Allen), loosen the 12
mm nut and line up the scale start point to the red cursor.
2. Turn the main knob to 50 kHz analog. Adjust the alumi
num slip sub-dial to line up with any one of the larger black dial marks.
3. Note the digital error. If it is MORE than 2 kHz adjust the VFO trimmer cap TCI (front under the seal tape) to exactly 50.0 on the digital readout.
4. Turn the main knob to 450 analog. If the digital error is less than 2 kHz it is in spec. If the digital error is greater, proceed:
For instance if the digital error is 14.454.0 (plus 4 kHz), multiply the error times 4(16 kHz) and adjust the VFO
trimmer cap to the desired frequency (14.450.0) LESS
the error, or 14.434.0. Next adjust the VFO inductor
L3 (center under the seal tape) back up to the desired
frequency of 14.450.0.
5. If the error in step 4 was in the minus direction, reverse the direction of correction adjustment in step 4.
6. VFO linearity final check; The digital readout and analog dial should agree to within ±2 kHz at every 100
kHz dial point.
5.4 HOWTHETXFINALTRANSISTORS ARE
PROTECTED
Final transistor protection is provided by sampling the
reflected power. As the reflected power is increased (higher
SWR) transmitter drive is reduced, thus decreasing input to
the final transistors. This in turn reduces collector loss,
protecting the final transistors.

5.5 TRANSMITTING ON WARC BANDS

As supplied, the TS-130SE will receive but not transmit on the 3 new WARC bands. If transmit capability is desired, a minor wiring change is required.
1. For all 3 bands; On the Rf unit X44-1380-00 unplug J5 (or cut the brown wire).
2. Of for individual Bands; On the RF unit: Band
10 MHz
18 MHz
24.5 MHz

5.6 PHONE PATCH OPERATION

The PC-1 Phone Patch may be used with the TS-130SE. Recommended settings are:
PC-1 RX Gain 4
TX Gain 4 Null as necessary
TS-130SE Vox Gain 1
AF Gain 4 Mic Gain 5
Anti Vox Max Most other phone patches will work satisfactorily without any modification to the radio, requiring only an external speaker connection, and that the Mic line be run through the patch.
For those oprators who desire a Patch input similar to the TS-520SE or TS-820S, an input connection and terminal must be added at the Mic input preamp circuit. Use a 100-Ki2 resistor in series, with a 10-ki2 to ground on the input side of the 100-ki2 resistor. Use shielded line, and connect as follows: On the AF Gen unit X49-1110-01 install the fixed divider at the junction of R43 10k, C42 lOOpf, and C43 luF (input of Q18). Add an RCA jack, or use remote pins 7 and Gnd for input.
