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).

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.
® vox GAIN CONTROL
This control adjusts VOX circuit sensitivity for both SSB and
CW operation.
(g) DELAY CONTROL
This control is used to adjust the "Hold" time of the VOX cir
cuit. Clockwise adjustment gives longer hold-time.

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.
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
