THANK YOU

THANK YOU

Thank you for choosing this KENWOOD TS-2000(X)/ TS-B2000 transceiver. It has been developed by a team of engineers determined to continue the tradition of excellence and innovation in KENWOOD transceivers.

This transceiver features dual Digital Signal Processing (DSP) units to process IF and AF signals. By taking maximum advantage of DSP technology, the TS-2000(X)/ TS-B2000 gives you enhanced interference reduction capabilities and improves the quality of audio that you transmit without installing additional analog filters. You will notice the differences when you fight QRM and QRN. As you learn how to use this transceiver, you will also find that KENWOOD is pursuing “user friendliness”. For example, each time you change the Menu No. in Menu mode, you will see scrolling messages on the display that tell you 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.

NOTICE TO THE USER

One or more of the following statements may be applicable for this equipment.

FCC WARNING

This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly approved in the instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized change or modification is made.

INFORMATION TO THE DIGITAL DEVICE USER REQUIRED BY THE FCC

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses and can generate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

ii

PRECAUTIONS

Please observe the following precautions to prevent fire, personal injury, and transceiver damage:

Connect the transceiver only to a power source described in this manual or as marked on the transceiver itself.

Route all power cables safely. Ensure the power cables can neither be stepped upon nor pinched by items placed near or against the cables. Pay particular attention to locations near AC receptacles, AC outlet strips, and points of entry to the transceiver.

Take care not to drop objects or spill liquid into the transceiver through enclosure openings. Metal objects, such as hairpins or needles, inserted into the transceiver may contact voltages resulting in serious electrical shocks. Never permit children to insert any objects into the transceiver.

Do not attempt to defeat methods used for grounding and electrical polarization in the transceiver, particularly involving the power input cable.

Adequately ground all outdoor antennas for this transceiver using approved methods. Grounding helps protect against voltage surges caused by lightning. It also reduces the chance of a build-up of static charge.

SYSTEM

Minimum recommended distance for an outdoor antenna from power lines is one and one-half times the vertical height of the associated antenna support structure. This distance allows adequate clearance from the power lines if the support structure fails for any reason.

Locate the transceiver so as not to interfere with its ventilation. Do not place books or other equipment on the transceiver that may impede the free movement of air. Allow a minimum of

4 inches (10 cm) between the rear of the transceiver and the wall or operating desk shelf.

Do not use the transceiver near water or sources of moisture. For example, avoid use near a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, or in a damp basement or attic.

The presence of an unusual odor or smoke is often a sign of trouble. Immediately turn the power OFF and remove the power cable. Contact a KENWOOD service station or your dealer for advice.

Locate the transceiver away from heat sources such as a radiator, stove, amplifier or other devices that produce substantial amounts of heat.

Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline or benzene to clean the cabinet of the transceiver. Use a clean cloth with warm water or a mild detergent.

Disconnect the input power cable from the power source when the transceiver is not used for long periods of time.

Remove the transceiver’s enclosure only to do accessory installations described in this manual or accessory manuals. Follow provided instructions carefully, to avoid electrical shocks. If unfamiliar with this type of work, seek assistance from an experienced individual, or have a professional technician do the task.

Enlist the services of qualified personnel in the following cases:

a)The power supply or plug is damaged.

b)Objects have fallen or liquid has spilled into the transceiver.

c)The transceiver has been exposed to rain.

d)The transceiver is operating abnormally or performance has seriously degraded.

e)The transceiver has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.

ANTENNA CONNECTION

An antenna system consists of an antenna, feed line, and ground. The transceiver can give excellent results if the antenna system and its installation are given careful attention. Use a properly adjusted 50Ω antenna of good quality, a high-quality 50Ω coaxial cable, and first-quality connectors. All connections must be clean and tight.

After making the connections, match the impedance of the coaxial cable and antenna so that the SWR is 1.5:1 or less. High SWR will cause the transmit output to drop and may lead to radio frequency interference to consumer products such as stereo receivers and televisions. You may even interfere with your own transceiver. Reports that your signal is distorted could indicate that your antenna system is not efficiently radiating the transceiver’s power.

Connect your primary HF/ 50 MHz antenna feed line to ANT 1 on the rear of the transceiver. If you are using two HF/ 50 MHz antennas, connect the secondary antenna to ANT 2. Connect VHF

(144 MHz), UHF (430/ 440 MHz), and 1.2 GHz (TS-2000/ TS-B2000 Optional) antennas to their respective antenna connectors on the rear of the transceiver. Refer to page 13 for the location of the antenna connectors.

Transmitting without connecting an antenna or other matched load may damage the transceiver. Always connect the antenna to the transceiver before transmitting.

All fixed stations should be equipped with a lightning arrester to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and transceiver damage.

Note: The transceiver’s protection circuit will activate when the SWR is greater than 2.5:1; however, do not rely on protection to compensate for a poorly functioning antenna system.

GROUND CONNECTION

At the minimum, a good DC ground is required to prevent such dangers as electric shock. For superior communications results, a good RF ground is required, against which the antenna system can operate. Both of these conditions can be met by providing a good earth ground for your station. Bury one or more ground rods or a large copper plate under the ground, then connect this to the transceiver GND terminal. Use heavy gauge wire or a copper strap, cut as short as possible, for this connection. Do not use a gas pipe, an electrical conduit, or a plastic water pipe as a ground.

LIGHTNING PROTECTION

Even in areas where lightning storms are less common, there are usually a limited number of storms each year. Consider carefully how to protect your equipment and home from lightning. The installation of a lightning arrestor is a start, but there is more that you can do. For example, terminate your antenna system transmission lines at an entry panel that you install outside your home. Ground this entry panel to a good outside ground, then connect the appropriate feed lines between the entry panel and your transceiver. When a lightning storm occurs, disconnecting the feed lines from your transceiver will ensure added protection.

1 INSTALLATION

DC POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION

In order to use this transceiver, you need a separate 13.8 V DC power supply that must be purchased separately. Do not directly connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. Use the supplied DC power cable to connect the transceiver to a regulated power supply. Do not substitute a cable with smaller gauge wires. The current capacity of the power supply must be 20.5 A peak or more.

DC 13.8 V

First, connect the DC power cable to the regulated DC power supply; the red lead to the positive terminal and the black lead to the negative terminal. Next, connect the DC power cable to the transceiver’s DC power connector. Press the connectors firmly together until the locking tab clicks.

Note:

Before connecting the DC power supply to the transceiver, be sure to switch OFF the DC power supply and transceiver.

Do not plug the DC power supply into an AC outlet until you make all connections.

UTILIZING THE BAIL (TS-2000(X) ONLY)

This transceiver is equipped with a bail so that you can angle the transceiver. The bail is located on the bottom of the transceiver. Pull the bail forward to the limit as shown.

Pull the bail

REPLACING FUSES

If a fuse blows, determine the cause then correct the problem. Only after the problem has been resolved, replace the blown fuse with a new one with the specified ratings. If newly installed fuses continue to blow, disconnect the power plug and contact a KENWOOD service station or your dealer for assistance.

ACCESSORY CONNECTIONS

FRONT PANEL

Headphones (PHONES)

Connect monaural or stereo headphones having a 4 to 32Ω impedance. This jack accepts a

6.3 mm (1/4") diameter, 2-conductor (mono) or

3-conductor (stereo) plug. After connecting the headphones, you will hear no sound from the internal (or optional external) speaker.

Microphone (MIC)

Connect a microphone having an impedance between 250 and 600Ω. Fully insert the connector, then screw the retaining ring clockwise until secure. Compatible microphones include the MC-43S, MC-47, MC-52DM, MC-60A, MC-80, MC-85, and MC-90. Do not use the MC-44, MC-44DM, MC-45, MC-45E, MC-45DM, MC-45DME, or MC-53DM microphones.

REAR PANEL

External Speakers (EXT.SP1/ EXT.SP2)

This transceiver has 2 independent receivers. Thus, it can output 2 separate audio signals. As a default, the transceiver mixes both audio signals internally and outputs them from the internal speaker. On the rear panel of the transceiver, there are 2 external speaker jacks. If an external speaker is connected to EXP.SP1, the internal speaker will mute. If the speaker is connected to EXT.SP2, both the external speaker and the

internal speaker will function. Use only external speakers with an impedance of 4 to 8Ω (8Ω nominal). These jacks accept only 3.5 mm (1/8") diameter, 2-conductor (mono) plugs.

Do not connect headphones to this jack. The high audio output of this jack could damage your hearing.

Keys for CW (PADDLE and KEY)

For CW operation using the internal electronic keyer, connect a keyer paddle to the PADDLE jack. For CW operation without using the internal electronic keyer, connect a straight key, semi-automatic key (bug), electronic keyer, or the CW keyed output from a Multimode Communications Processor (MCP) to the KEY jack. The PADDLE and KEY jacks mate with a 6.3 mm (1/4") 3-conductor plug and a 3.5 mm (1/8") 2-conductor plug respectively. External electronic keyers or MCPs must use positive keying to be compatible with this transceiver. Use a shielded cable between the key and the transceiver.

Note: Due to the functionality of the internal electronic keyer, you may find it unnecessary to connect both a paddle and another type of keyer unless you want to use a PC-based keyer for CW. Read the “ELECTRONIC KEYER” section {page 42} to become familiar with the internal keyer.

Note:

The position of the MAIN AF control does not affect the volume of beeps caused by pressing keys nor the CW transmit sidetone. The audio level for Packet operation is also independent of the MAIN AF control setting.

When the optional RC-2000 is installed, you can control the volume with the AF controls on both the transceiver and the RC-2000. However, when turning the transceiver on, the volume settings of the RC-2000 have priority.

RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) GAIN

Set the MAIN RF GAIN control fully clockwise. You may turn it counterclockwise slightly when you have trouble hearing the desired signal because of excessive atmospheric noise or interference from other stations. First take note of the peak S-meter reading of the desired signal. Then turn the MAIN RF GAIN control counterclockwise until the S-meter reads the peak value that you noted. Signals that are weaker than this level will be attenuated and reception of the station will become easier.

Depending on the type and gain of your antenna, and the condition of the band, you may also prefer leaving the MAIN RF GAIN control turned counterclockwise by the same amount rather than turning it fully clockwise. When using FM mode, always set the MAIN RF GAIN control fully clockwise.

SELECTING VFO A OR VFO B

2 VFOs are available for controlling the frequency on the main transceiver. Each VFO, VFO A and VFO B, works independently so that a different frequency and mode can be selected. When SPLIT operation is activated, VFO A is used for reception and VFO B is used for transmission. The opposite combination is also possible.

Press [A/B] to toggle between VFO A and VFO B.

“tA” or “tB” appears to indicate which VFO is selected.

Press [FUNC], [LSB/ USB/ AUTO] to toggle the Auto Mode selection. When it is active, “AUTO” appears. If you change the frequency above or below 9.5 MHz, the transceiver automatically switches modes; LSB for frequencies under 9.5 MHz and USB for frequencies equal to or above 9.5 MHz (HF/ 50 MHz band). As for the 144 MHz,

430/ 440 MHz, and 1.2 GHz bands, the transceiver automatically changes the operating mode to FM. You can further add the frequency table data to change the mode automatically

{page 73}.

ADJUSTING SQUELCH

The purpose of the Squelch is to mute the speaker when no signals are present. With the squelch level correctly set, you will hear sound only while actually receiving signals. The higher the selected squelch level, the stronger the signals must be to receive. The appropriate squelch level depends on the ambient RF noise conditions.

Turn the MAIN SQL control, when there are no signals present, to select the squelch level at which the background noise is just eliminated; the MAIN band LED will turn off. Many ham operators prefer leaving the MAIN SQL control fully counterclockwise unless operating on a full-carrier mode such as FM. The squelch level for the main transceiver is preset at the factory to approximately 9 o’clock for FM and 11 o’clock for SSB and AM.

This transceiver provides many other methods for quickly selecting a frequency. For further information, see “SELECTING YOUR FREQUENCY” {page 37}.

FRONT PANEL METER

The multi-function meter measures the parameters in the table below. The S-meter and FILTER scales appear when the main transceiver is in receive mode, and the PWR meter appears when it is in transmit mode. Each press of [5/ METER] switches among the ALC, SWR, and COMP meters. Peak readings for the S-meter, ALC, SWR, COMP, and PWR functions are held momentarily.

Meter

What Is Measured?

 

 

S

Strength of received signals

 

 

PWR

Transmit output power

 

 

ALC

Automatic level control status

 

 

SWR

Antenna system standing wave ratio

 

 

COMP

Speech compression level when using

the Speech Processor {page 40}

 

 

 

FILTER

Note:

The COMP meter functions only when the Speech Processor is ON for SSB, FM, or AM mode.

The PWR indicator shows the output power level as a percentage on the 1.2 GHz band.

The SWR meter works only for ANT 1 and ANT 2 (HF/ 50 MHz band).

Peak Hold readings cannot be deactivated.

For a detailed explanation on transmitting, see “BASIC COMMUNICATIONS”, beginning on page 28.

Note: When using AM, CW, or FSK mode, you may adjust the carrier level. In general, adjust the level so that the ALC meter reads within the limits of the ALC zone. For the adjustment procedures, refer to the instructions for each mode in “TRANSMISSION”

{pages 28, 29, 30}.

SELECTING TRANSMIT POWER

It is wise to select a lower transmit power if communication is still reliable. This lowers the risk of interfering with others on the band. When operating from battery power, selecting a lower transmit power allows you more operating time before a charge is necessary. This transceiver allows you to change the transmit power even while transmitting.

1 Press [PWR/ TX MONI].

MENU SETUP

WHAT IS A MENU?

Many functions on this transceiver are selected or configured via a software-controlled Menu, rather than through the physical controls of the transceiver. Once familiar with the Menu system, you will appreciate the versatility it offers. You can customize the various timings, settings, and programming functions on this transceiver to meet your needs without using many controls and switches.

QUICK MENU

Because the number of functions this transceiver provides is extraordinary, there are numerous items in each Menu. If you find accessing desired Menu Nos. to be too time consuming, use the Quick Menu to create your own customized, abbreviated Menu. You can then add those Menu Nos. which you frequently use, to the Quick Menu. Copying Menu Nos. to the Quick Menu has no effect on the Menu.

MENU A/ MENU B

This transceiver has two menus: Menu A and Menu B. These menus contain identical functions and can be configured independently. The transceiver, therefore, allows you to switch between two different environments quickly and easily. For example, you can configure Menu A for DXing and contesting while Menu B is for the relaxed local ragchewing. By switching from Menu A to Menu B,

you can instantly change the Menu configuration and key assignment to suit your current operating style. Or, two operators may share a single transceiver by dedicating one Menu to each operator. Both operators can always enjoy their own configuration.

MENU ACCESS

1Press [MENU].

The Menu No. and setting appear on the main dot-matrix display, and the explanation of the menu appears on the sub dot-matrix display.

PROGRAMMING THE QUICK MENU

1Press [MENU].

2Turn the MULTI/ CH control to select the desired Menu No.

3Press QUICK MEMO [M.IN].

A star appears, indicating that the Menu item has been added to the Quick Menu.

To remove the item from the Quick Menu, press QUICK MEMO [M.IN] again.

4 Press [MENU] to exit Menu mode.

Note: You cannot add a sub menu No. to the Quick Menu. Press [MAIN] to go back to the main menu No., then press

QUICK MEMO [M.IN] to add the menu No. to the Quick Menu.

2Press [A/B] to select Menu A or Menu B.

“A” or “B” appears, indicating which Menu is selected.

3Turn the MULTI/ CH control to select the desired Menu No.

Each time you change the Menu No.,

a different scrolling message appears on the sub dot-matrix display, describing the Menu No.

You will see “PUSH SUB” if there are submenus in the Menu No. Pressing [SUB] allows you to select from among the sub-menus. Press [MAIN] to exit the sub-menu selection.
