The TS-990S comes equipped with dual receivers for simultaneous dual reception on different bands, it also
features narrow-band roofing filters on the main receiver in a full down-conversion configuration. The new
TS-990S achieves the highest basic reception performance of any radio in the TS series, through the careful
selection of circuits, components and accelerating analysis using triple DSP configuration. The Trio tone has
evolved into Kenwood tone. Also, thanks to the dual TFT display and superior panel layout, it achieves both
comfortable visibility and operability. Our top-of-the-line transceiver is for all radio operators who love HF.

The horizontal axis shows separation of the target signal by interfering signal frequencies (two waves). At a frequency of 10 kHz,
interference 1 refers to reception frequency + 10 kHz, and interference 2 refers to reception frequency + 20 kHz.
The newly developed mixer contributes to achieving +40 dBm IP3
In place of the Double Balanced Mixer, which uses the J-FET, we have
installed the newly developed Double Balanced Grounded Switch Type
in the 1st mixer circuit, which is the heart of the main receiver.
The transceiver is also equipped with a pre selector function (works
on HF amateur band) that varies its tuning frequency in tandem with
the receiver frequency. It effectively dampens interference from strong
signals that cannot be minimized through bandpass filters on dedicated
amateur bands. Furthermore, we have achieved a +40dBm class of
third-order intercept point for the signal path of the 1st mixer, based on
select circuits and components, employing large core toroidal coils for
protecting against distortion from large input signals, as well as using
relays for the signal switching.

Sub-receiver
HF/50MHz TRANSCEIVER TS-990S
Innovation spurred by digital technology has
revolutionized the Kenwood tone.
Super sub, which supports
simultaneous dual reception.
Even after using narrow bandwidth filters for long periods of time,
it is still easy to hear and less tiring to listen to.
Two attractive features of simultaneous
dual reception for different bands are that
you can easily change the condx on other
bands and easily handle split-operation.
From this single device a whole new array
of strategies becomes possible.
In addition to introducing AGC control using dedicated DSP,
we have further refined the Kenwood tone and reception sound quality transmitted
by radio operators worldwide by innovating the analogue AGC unit
and installing numerous interference and noise elimination functions.
Such innovations have given new life to Kenwood’s legendary tone.

Down-conversion occurs on the

superior close-in dynamic range properties. You can
clearly catch signals under conditions made prob-
lematic by strong close-in interference signals.
The sub-receiver features performance that has
exceeded its class since going on sale, thus further
refining this popular receiver on the TS-590S. Be-
cause this is particularly the case on the front end,
where it employs circuit configuration that makes
down-conversion possible on the leading five ama-
teur bands, it can be used in actual operation despite
being just a sub-receiver.

interfere with the target signal multiply, this is a

Cooling system to send a sufficient volume of air to each unit
High reliability design promises stable operation at 200W
Cooling is very important to obtain a stable output
of 200 W. Heat dissipation efficiency is increased
in the TS-990S through a large fin-type aluminium
heat sink. An independent variable-speed fan is
provided for the switching power supply, final
unit, and antenna tuner, cooling each unit with a
sufficient air supply. The switching power supply
and the final unit have twin cooling fans. Noise is
reduced by controlling the fan speed according to
the temperature.
The device uses POWER MOSFET VRF150MP,
which runs at 50V, with push-pull. You can obtain a
high, stable output of 200 W on all bands. You can
achieve superior IMD properties by pursuing bias
and matching conditions in order to fully exploit the
FET attributes. Further, you can realize Kenwood’s
distinctive tone by amplifying the clean modulated
signal produced by DSP with an amplifier that ex-
hibits excellent linearity.
