Kenwood R-1000
 

My dad loan me his Kenwood R-1000. Because my birthday is comming up he
might give it to me.

Anyway, I have it connected with a Wilson 5000 mag mount outside of the
window and connect to a VHF/UHF TV antena on the roof. I grounded the
radio to the radiator. And using KOSS Pro 4AA headphones.

No scaning or memories on the radio, but it works nice.

I am tuned to 14.325 USB (09:45 UTC) but at 14.326 USB I heard a ham
communicating. Nothing was mentioned about the hurricane so far.

I need to learn how to calibrate the dial on this radio.

SR and a big 73!

The digital display shows the center of bandpass, not the carrier
frequency like a higher resolution display on one of the more ham oriented
receivers does. (Note that the frequency doesn't shift when you switch
between USB and LSB). It will always read 1.6 kHz off (either way)
for an SSB signal. Well, rounded off to the nearest 1 kHz.

If you try and adjust the counter, you'll screw up the clock.
(The 3.2768 MHz xtal on the top board).

The analog dial on the VFO is a friction fit, the silver ring knob
at the back of the main tuning knob can be shifted to align that dial.
