1 FEATURES
e 48 RF Power MOSFETs
The
power amplifier unit
is
equipped with 4 wide-band amplifier circuits (2SK408/2SK409),
each incorporating
12
high-voltage resistant
RF
power
MOSFETs.
As
output gain
is
achieved
by electrically combining the output from these broad-band amplifiers, sufficient output margin
is
available so that high-quality full duty cycle output throughout the entire power range
is
possible.
• SEPP-type Low Distorfion Power Amplifier
Single ended push-pull
(SEPP)
circuits are employed.
SEPP
circuits do not have any of
the
shortcomings of conventional transistor-type push-pull circuits, so the JRL-2000F obtains high
output power with superior
IMD
chracteristics.
• Fully Automatie Antenna Tuner
The
JRL-2000F
is
equipped with a fully automatic, instantly switching antenna tuner which
converts
the
composite elements
in
the
matehing circuit to the binary system.
By
storing matehing
data for each antenna
in
the amp's high-capacity memory, antenna matehing can be done
instantaneously.
• Automatie Antenna Seleetor
Up
to
four antennas can be connected and selected by front panel switches.
The
selected
antenna setting can be stored
in
memory along with the matehing data for the antenna tuner
to allow instant
QSY.
e Automatie Frequeney Counter System
A built-in frequency counter automatically reads the frequency of the input signal from
the
exciter and selects the correct frequency band. Manual band changing
is
not required and
any exciter can be used with the JRL-2000F.
• High-Effieieney Switehing Power Supply with PFC
The
power supply for the JRL-2000F
is
equipped with a Power Factor Corrector
(PFC)
which
corrects the
AC
input waveform to a sine wave by using the active smoothing circuit method.
This increases the
AC
line power factor, which previously attained only 50-60%, to almost
100%. This means that power consumption has been nearly halved compared to other
conventional power supplies.
With
its high-efficiency
MOSFET
switching regulator, a maximum
continuous power supply output of 2.4
kW
can be achieved when this exceptionally powerful
unit
is
connected to 220 -
240V
AC.
• Low Noise Design
The
power amplifier and the power supply unit are equipped with
MOSFETs
which have higher
heat-resistance properties. This reduces the operating time
of
the cooling fans significantly.
A low noise axial
fan
mounted
in
the rear or the chasis also contributes to noise reduction.
Additionally, a full break-in circuit with a compact relay housed
in
a shielded case reduces
relay operating noise.

1 FEATURES
• Various Protection Circuits
The JRL-2000F incorporates several protection facilities
in
order to protect the circuitry against
internal and external stresses and overloads such as overdrive and abnormal output Ioads.
When
one of the protection circuits
is
actuated
in
the
PA
unit, the gate bias of the power
MOSFETs
are directly controlled, without slow-operating ALC feedback,
in
order to reduce
the power output. Therefore, should the ALC line not be conected, the
PA
unit will not suffer
any damage.

3 BEFORE USING THE JRL-2000F
3.1
Installation Location
When
determining a location for installing the JRL-2000F, please take the following criteria
into consideration:
• Avoid a place that
is
exposed to direct sunlight or susceptible to overheating.
• Avoid humid or dusty places.
•
Do
not place containers holding water or other liquids above or
on
top of the JRL-2000F.
•
The
JRL-2000F draws cooling air
in
from the front panel and expels
it
from
the
rear.
Therefore,
do not place any objects within
15
cm of the front and rear panels of the amplifier.

Rear
~

J l
lntake vent
1t
Front
~
15
cm min.
• Use a sturdy table or plattarm that can easily support the weight of the JRL-2000F
(approximately 28 kg).
3.2 Power Supply Requirements
-4·
The
JRL-2000F consumes approximately 12A of electrical current at
an
output power of 1000
W when power
is
supplied at 220
VAC.
This must be taken into consideration, along with
the consumption of the exciter, accessories and other home appliances, when choosing
an
AC
line of sufficient capacity.
For
full 1
kW
outputpower
a 200--240
VAC
line must be used. lf a 100--120
VAC
line
is
used,
the maximum rated
RF
output power
is
750W.
lf the power outlet has a ground terminal, be sure that the black wire
is
connected to ground.

BEFORE USING THE JRL-2000F 3
3.3 Exciters
Any HF-band transmitter or transceiver with a 50Q
RF
output impedance can
be
used
as
an
exciter for
the
JRL-2000F.
When
used with the Japan Radio
Co.
JST-135
HF
transceiver,
additional control features can
be
utilized to enhance automatic band changing and tuning.
lf the maximum output of
the
exciter exceeds
100W,
the
over-current protection circuit
in
the
power supply unit may be activated and
the
output waveform may
be
distorted. Therefore,
it
is
necessary
to
connect
an
external ALC signal
in
order
to
control
the
exciter output.
3.4 Antennas
lt
is
recommended that
you
select antenna(s) that meet
the
following criteria:
• Antenna impedance
is
50n.
•
When
using a beam
or
vertical antenna equipped with trap coils
or
balun transformers,
be
sure that they are capable of handling at least
1.5
kW
PEP
input.
• Use a coaxial cable with sufficient current capacity for all antenna Connections.
• lf the antenna
VSWR
value
is
too high the antenna wave radiation factor drops. Also,
in
case of a mismatch of the coaxial cable and antenna, undesired
RF
radiation may occur,
possibly causing radio interference. Therefore, special care must be taken
in
order
to
avoid
these problems.
3.5
Grounding
To
prevent electric shock and interference with other devices, connect your JRL-2000F and
all other radio devices
to
a proper external grounding system. Use the heaviest possible copper
wire, braid
or
strap and follow
the
shortest possible route.
Do
not use any gas pipe, water
pipe or cable duct
as
a ground.

-6·
Before connecting the JRL-2000F to
an
exciter, turn oft the power of each radio device and
unplug all power cords from the outlets.
Different methods of connection are used for different types of exciters. lnterfacing the exciter
to the JRL-2000F
is
accomplished by connecting various types of signal lines to the control
connector
as
weil
as
connecting the coaxial cable and grounding cable.

terminal can not
be
used (for example,
if it

already
used for another application), it
is
not neccessary to connect
to
this terminal. However,
in
this case the following should be noted:
• Automatie antenna tuning can not be implemented unless the mode
is
set
to
CW
and keyed down; and,
•
The
JRL-2000F can not sense
when
the JST-135's power switch

and
off, so the amplifier's power supply must be switched
on
and off manually via front

Basic operation
is
not affected
if
pin
11
is
not connected. However, smooth operation
is
possible by connecting this pin.
The
forced transmission signal
is
at grounded Ievei
when the JRL-2000F issues a request for
an
RF
signal.
When
there
is
no request,
it
is
in
the open state.
lf there
is
a terminal
on
the exciter that switches the exciter to transmit when grounded,
connect that terminal to pin
11.
lf
not,
connect pin
11
to the exciter's
PTI
terminal.
lf
CW
is
used, connect pin

to the exciter's

line as weil unless negative voltage
is
applied to the

for example
in
an
exciter that uses vacuum tubes
in
the final
stage. lf negative voltage
is
applied, do not connect pin
