TRANSMITTER*
Output Power
80-17 meters, 10 W PEP max (+/- 1 dB); 12 and 10 meters, 8 W PEP max (+/- 1 dB).
Recommended transmit duty cycle: 50%, all modes. (If power amplifier temperature or
current drain is too high, power will automatically be reduced.)
NOTE: When using over 5 W in SSB, DATA-A and AFSK-A modes, the
recommended supply voltage is 12 V or higher to minimize transmit intermodulation
products. Higher power with lower voltages should be used only when necessary.
Internal ATU (KXAT2)
7 L/7 C network; matching range typ. 20:1 or higher. Rated power: 15 W.
Insertion loss (bypass mode): < 0.5 dB. Two different data sets available for
home/field use (see MENU:ATU DATA).
Transmit Features
Adjustable speech compression (baseband envelope clipping); 8-band TX EQ; VOX;
full and semi CW break-in with adjustable delay; diode T/R Switching; 3 DATA/CW
messages and 2 SSB (DVR) messages; automatic logging of DATA/CW text (see
MENU:LOGGING).
Carrier Suppression
> 50 dB typ.
Harmonic / Spurious Outputs
> 50 dB below carrier typ. @ 10 W
CW Sidetone/Transmit offset
400-800 Hz, adjustable (receive filter center frequency tracks sidetone pitch)
* Specifications apply only within ham bands except as noted. All measurements taken with 13.8 VDC supply.
