Kenwood ts-2000 am performance
- Thread starter Truck
- Start date
Wouldn't run that radio in a truck unless you install a 6m-80m screwdriver antenna. If'n your gonna talk to other truckers, they won't be impressed with its AM performance compared to a Galaxy or Uniden radio. Wouldn't hack the 2000 just to make it a AM radio. Most use it for SSB phone, CW, or digital modes.
Just the opposite. The TS-2000, 590 and 480 all sound very good and loud on AM with some processing. Very clear with good fidelity with the MC-43 hand mic. Even better with other microphones. Adjust the processor input setting to yield about about 5 dB of compression on the meter, set the TX audio bandwidth to 3Khz and the TX EQ to off. You will get unsolicited compliments on the audio.

@ BJ radionut:
Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned -
