A pot. Hmmm wonder why Kenwood used such a simple component rather than the optical encoder scheme? Mike WE0H From: Stewart Bryant On the TS850 the RIT is a variable resistor not an encoder (It's VR6
On the TS850 the RIT is a variable resistor not an encoder (It's VR6 on the SW_A board). It is normal for this arrangement to go to an ADC on the processor which then controls the synthesizer - addin
The RIT on the TS-930 is just as rock solid as the VFO is. Not even a tiny bit of drift. It uses a optical encoder similar to the VFO's design. Mike WE0H From: Stewart Bryant MIKE REID wrote: Wolf, T
Hi Stewart, I think on the TS-690 (as well as the TS-850) the RIT affects the digital synthesizer. Especially because the current RIT position is displayed in decimal numeric form on the display. The
Wolf, Try setting the rig to 499.99kc and use the RIT to go up into the 501kc band. No more attenuator!!! That’s what we do on 505-510kc here in the US. Is the RIT control a stable input to th
Hi Wolf, I run a TS-930. It has a 9.9kc RIT which seems quite a bit to me but covers our US band pretty well. Take out the MF attenuator if you have a schematic handy. Kenwood usually puts in 3 resis
