12、hank you for choosing this KENWOOD TH-F6A/ TH-F7E transceiver. It has been developed by a team of engineers determined to continue the tradition of excellence and innovation in KENWOOD transceivers. First, dont let the size fool you. This small FM portable transceiver features 2 m, 1.25 m (TH-F6A on

13、ly), and 70 cm amateur radio band operation plus another all-mode 100 kHz to 1.3 GHz receiver (SSB and CW are up to 470 MHz). In the meantime, as you learn how to use this transceiver, you will also find that KENWOOD is pursuing “user friendliness”. For example, each time you change the Menu No. in

14、Menu mode, you will see a text message on the display that lets you know what you are configuring. Though user friendly, this transceiver is technically sophisticated and some features may be new to you. Consider this manual to be a personal tutorial from the designers. Allow the manual to guide you

15、 through the learning process now, then act as a reference in the coming years.

25、ULATED POWER SUPPLY To connect the transceiver to an appropriate regulated power supply, use an optional PG-2W DC cable. 1Confirm that the power of both the transceiver and the power supply are OFF. 2Connect the optional PG-2W DC cable to the power supply; the red lead to the positive (+) terminal,

26、and the black lead to the negative () terminal. 3Connect the barrel plug on the DC cable to the DC IN jack of the transceiver. If the transceiver is turned OFF while a regulated power supply is connected with the DC IN jack, it automatically initiates charging the Li-ion battery pack (PB-42L) above.

27、 Note: NIf the DC power supply voltage is below 12.0 V DC, you may not be able to charge the Li-ion battery pack (PB-42L). NThe supply voltage must be between 12.0 V and 16.0 V to prevent damaging the transceiver. If input voltage exceeds approximately 16.5 V, warning beeps sound and “VOLTAGE ERROR”

28、 appears. Remove the DC IN jack plug immediately. NIf the DC power supply voltage is above 14.5 V DC and “H” (High Power) is selected, “H” icon blinks and the output power is reduced to “L” level (Low Power) automatically page 41.
