Description: Tested, powers on. The new TS-520S provides full coverage on all amateur bands from 1.8 to 29.7 MHz. Kenwood gives you 160 meter capability, WWV on 15.000 MHz., and' an auxiliary band position for maximum flexibility. And with the addition of the TV-502 and TV-506 transverters, your TS-520S can cover 160 meters to 2 meters on SSB and CW. The new TS-520S incorporates a 3SK35 dual gate MOSFET for outstanding cross modulation and spurious response charac- teristics. The 3SK35 has a low noise figure (3.5 dB typ.) and high gain (18 dB typ.) for excellent sensitivity. A new vernier tuning mechanism allows easy and accurate adjustment of the plate control during tune-up. Highly Effective Noise Blanker An effective noise blanking circuit develop- ed by Kenwood that virtually eliminates ignition noise is built-in TS-520S. The new Kenwood DG-5 provides easy, ac- curate readout of your operating frequency while transmitting and receiving. (See back page for details.) The new TS-520S is completely solid state except for the driver (12BY7A) and the final tubes. Rather than substitute TV sweep tubes as final amplifier tubes in a state of the art amateur transceiver, Ken- wood has employed two husky S-2001A (equivalent to 6146B) tubes. These rugged, time-proven tubes are known for their long life and superb linearity.

RF Attenuator The new TS-520S has built-in 20 dB at- tenuator that can be activated by a push button switch conveniently located on the front panel. VFO-520S New Remote VFO The VFO-520S remote VFO has been de- signed to match the styling of the TS-520S and provide maximum operating flexibility on the band selected on your TS-520S. Mobile Capability without with (option) allows for mobile operation of the TS-520S. Easy Connection to Phone Patch The TS-520S has 2 RCA phone jacks on the rear panel for PHONE PATCH IN and OUT. YG-3395C - CW Filter (option) The YG-3395C (CW-520) 500 Hz filter can be easily installed and will provide improved operation on CW. The addition of the DS-1A DC-DC converter ! Amplified Type AGC Circuit The AGC circuit has 3 positions (OFF, FAST SLOW) to enable the TS-520S to be operated in the optimum condition at all times whether operating CW or SSB. The TS-520S retains all of the features of the original TS-520 that made it tops in its class: RIT control8-pole crystal filter* Built-in 25 KHz calibratorFront panel carrier level controlSemi-break-in CW with sidetoneVOX/PTT/MOXTUNE position for low power tune up*Built-in speaker* Built-in Cooling Fan*Provisions for 4 fixed frequency channels*Heater switch.
