Over 40 years of experience inform the reviews and commentary presented on Dave's Radio Receiver Page, covering a wide array of radio receivers and transceivers. The resource details specific models such as the **ICOM IC-R8600** SDR Communications Receiver, which is lauded as Icom's best wide-band receiver, even surpassing the IC-R9500 in performance. Other notable reviews include the ICOM IC-7300 HF Transceiver, highlighting its direct sampling SDR technology and spectrum scope capabilities, alongside numerous models from Japan Radio Co. (JRC), Kenwood, Yaesu, and various portable shortwave receivers. The content provides practical insights into the performance and characteristics of each radio, often drawing comparisons between models. For instance, the early issues with the AOR AR7030 receiver's Bourns mechanical encoders are thoroughly documented, including AOR's eventual switch to higher-quality Alps encoders. The page also features reviews of antennas like the MFJ-1026 Noise Canceling Signal Enhancer and various power supplies, offering a holistic view of radio monitoring setups. The author's "2 ear / 2 eye method" emphasizes real-world listening experiences over laboratory measurements, providing a unique perspective on equipment utility.

The Elecraft K3, a popular HF transceiver, is often benchmarked against new market entrants. This article critically compares the Kenwood TS-590S to the K3, focusing on key technical specifications and operational aspects relevant to serious amateur radio operators. The author proposes three distinct evaluation methods: a circuit diagram comparison, an independent review analysis (referencing Peter Hart, G3SJX, in RadCom), and a real-world "ear test" by experienced contest operators on 40 and 80 meters. The analysis delves into specific receiver components, including the first mixer design, RF and IF amplifier performance, and the presence of an image noise filter. It highlights the K3's switched mixer and the potential for the TS-590S to utilize similar or improved designs, such as a classic filter with enhanced selectivity. The article also scrutinizes the second mixer stage, noting the K3's SA612 chip and its associated IP3 limitations, suggesting Kenwood might achieve benefits with a different mixer architecture. Further points of comparison include DSP capabilities, where the K3's high-performing DSP with KK7P's involvement is noted against the TS-590S's potential reliance on newer IC technology but possibly less refined software. The discussion extends to DDS and PLL implementations for phase noise and spurious emissions, and the utility of a second receiver for DX chasing and contesting, acknowledging its importance for some operators while being less critical for others. The article concludes by emphasizing personal preference in equipment selection.

The Kenwood TH-F6A handheld transceiver can achieve an extended transmit frequency range of 137-174 MHz, 216-235 MHz, and 410-470 MHz by removing a specific diode and chip resistor from the main PCB. This modification also expands the receive range on the A-band to 142-152 MHz, 216-235 MHz, and 420-450 MHz. For the TH-F7E, the transmit range extends to 137-174 MHz and 410-470 MHz, with a corresponding receive range on the A-band. Performing these hardware changes will reset and initialize the radio's memory contents, necessitating prior backup of important channel frequencies. Instructions are provided for constructing a homemade PC programming cable compatible with the Kenwood TH-G71A, TH-F6A, and TH-F7E. The interface utilizes an RS-232-to-logic (0-3.3V) level-shifter and a full-duplex serial connection, adapting the Kenwood PG-4S cable schematic for the TH-G71's 2.5mm and 3.5mm phono plugs. Specific schematic tweaks include changing R1 from 150 ohms to 1K ohm to optimize power from the serial port and adding a 150K ohm resistor between the Radio TXD and ground to manage the 3.3V I/O pin. Detailed plug pinouts for the 2.5mm and 3.5mm connectors are presented, with the interface's TXD connecting to the ring of the 2.5mm plug and RxD to the shield of the 3.5mm plug. Ground connects to the shield of the 2.5mm plug, while the tips of both plugs are no-connects. Debugging procedures cover verifying positive and negative power rails from the serial port, checking component polarities, and testing level-shifting and inversion functions of the interface. Software setup involves enabling "TC ON" (Menu 15 for TH-G71, Menu 9 for TH-F6) and using Kenwood's MCP programming software.

This page displays a 404 error, indicating the original content describing a simple _RS232 interface_ circuit is unavailable. The circuit was reportedly designed for older Kenwood transceivers and featured in chapter 22 of the _ARRL Handbook_. It likely involved basic electronic components for level shifting and signal conditioning between a computer's serial port and the radio's control interface. The intended project would have detailed the construction of a hardware interface, enabling CAT control for specific Kenwood models. Such interfaces typically convert TTL or CMOS logic levels from the radio to the +/-12V levels required by RS232, often utilizing ICs like the MAX232 or discrete transistor circuits. While the specific schematics and bill of materials are absent due to the page error, the context suggests a DIY electronics project for enhancing legacy amateur radio station functionality through computer control.
