User manual KENWOOD HMC-3

[. . . ] 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)/ HMC-3 gives you enhanced interference reduction capabilities and improves the quality of audio that you transmit without installing additional analog filters. As you learn how to use this transceiver, you will also find that KENWOOD is pursuing "user friendliness". in Menu mode, you will see scrolling messages on the display that tell you what you are selecting. [. . . ] Turn the control clockwise to select a higher frequency and counterclockwise to select a lower frequency. Since the DSP Beat Cancel processes the incoming signals at the AF stage, strong beat signals may control the AGC, then weaken the target signal level. In this case, use the Auto Notch Filter instead, to remove the beat signal from the IF passband filter. Note: While adjusting the MANUAL BC control, the transceiver clicks. This is not a malfunction. Desired signal Before After NOISE REDUCTION (N. R. 2: SSB/ CW/ FSK/ AM) This transceiver provides two types of Noise Reduction functions (1 and 2) for reducing random noise which interferes with the desired signal. Trying them both is the easiest way to judge which function works more effectively under the current conditions. Normally, select Noise Reduction 1 (Line Enhanced) in SSB mode and Noise Reduction 2 (SPAC) in CW mode. Press [N. R. / LEVEL] to toggle between Noise Reduction 1, Noise Reduction 2, and OFF. " or " " appears, depending on which " function is selected. Press [A. N. / LEVEL] to toggle the Auto Notch Filter ON and OFF. If the interfering beat signals change the tone frequency randomly, you can adjust the Auto Notch level. Press [FUNC], [A. N. / LEVEL] to access the Auto Notch level adjustment, then turn the MULTI/ CH control to select the level from FIX, and 1 to 4. The frequency range of each band is provided in the following table (under "ATTENUATOR"). Note: If the same frequency (144 MHz or 430 (440) MHz) band is selected on both the main transceiver and the sub-receiver, the pre-amplifier can be switched ON or OFF for both receivers. This is because the main transceiver and sub-receiver share the same antenna. Note: x If the same frequency (144 MHz or 430/ 440 MHz) band is selected on both the main transceiver and the sub-receiver, the attenuator can be switched ON or OFF for both receivers. This is because the main transceiver and sub-receiver share the same antenna. x Available receiving frequencies in the above frequency bands vary, depending on the market code. x If 118 ~ 135. 995 MHz, 155 ~ 173. 995 MHz or 220 ~ 229. 995 MHz is selected for the sub-receiver, the pre-amplifier cannot be turned ON (K-type only). 57 MEMORY FEATURES MEMORY CHANNELS The TS-2000(X) provides you with 300 memory channels, numbered 00 to 299, for storing operating frequency data, modes and other information. Memory channels 290 to 299 are designed for programming VFO tuning ranges and scan ranges. The data you can store is listed below: Conventional memory is used for storing data you will often recall. For example, you may store the frequency where you regularly meet your club members. Parameter RX frequency TX frequency RX mode TX mode Start/ End frequencies Offset frequency Shift direction Reverse mode RX frequency step size TX frequency step size Tone frequency CTCSS frequency DCS code Tone/ CTCSS/ DCS mode ON/ OFF Memory name Memory Channel Lockout ON/ OFF 1 STORING DATA IN MEMORY There are 2 methods used for storing transmit/receive frequencies and associated data in memory channels 00 to 289. Use either method, depending on the relationship of the receive and transmit frequencies you store: Simplex channels: RX frequency = TX frequency Split-frequency channels: RX frequency TX frequency Memory channels 290 to 299 can also be used as simplex channels. Note: When RIT or XIT is ON, the frequency that includes the RIT or XIT offset will be stored.
