Title: TS-830s RF board Alignment Post by: WA4WAX on March 29, 2016, 03:35:07 PM I was reading the directions for RF board alignment. I am not entirely clear on the last part.
Anyone familiar with this procedure? Yes, it is new driver time!! :-) Title: Re: TS-830s RF board Alignment Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on March 29, 2016, 06:59:17 PM I was reading the directions for RF board alignment.

Yes, it is new driver time!! :-) For starters, it would be helpful if you detailed the procedure here or at least point to a link with the manual and page number and which specific procedure in the alignment instructions.

However, I do have a TS-820S service manual if you need one. Phil - AC0OB Title: Re: TS-830s RF board Alignment Post by: WA4WAX on March 30, 2016, 12:01:32 AM Ok!
Please see: http://wb4hfn.com/KENWOOD/Articles/TS-830S_Alignment.pdf Page 37, item 18. I am referring to the last steps. It addresses 3 coils on the RF board, and 1 in the IF board. It says carrier control should be set to maximum alc. If so, what are you setting those last coils for? Thanks!

The TS-830S is SSB only. The TS-830S was the first rig I purchased after I became re-licensed. Still have it for "old times" sake. ;) Now do AM almost exclusively.
