It
features
built-in
VOX,
crystal
calibrator,
noise
blanker,
incremental
tuning
and
1
kHz
frequency
readout.
High
stability
is
obtained
by
the
use
of
a
well
designed

LOCATION
Select
a
proper
operating
location.
It
should
be
dry
and
free
from
direct
sunlight.
There
should
be
at
least
3
inches
clearance
between
any
objects
and
the
rear
of
the
trans-
ceiver
to
allow
adequate
air
flow
for

CAUTION:
Before

make
sure
the
AF

knob
is
set
to
POWER
OFF
and
that
the
stand-by
switch
is
set
to

If
this
is
not
done,
damage
may
occur
when

is
applied.
(See

Connect
a
suitable
antenna
to
the
ANT
jack
on
the
transceiver
(See
Fig.
3).
An
antenna
is
considered
suitable
when
it
presents
a
50
~
75
ohm
load
to
the
transceiver,
The
performance
and
efficiency
of
the
TS-511S
is
directly
related
to
the
type
of
antenna
that
is
chosen.
For
further
information
on
antennas,
the
ARRL
Antenna
Handbook
is
recommended.
Connect
a
high

3.8
OPERATION
WITH
A
LINEAR
AMPLIFIER
The
TS-511S
transceiver
is
readily
compatible
with
most
linear
amplifiers.
It
has
extra
relay
contacts
for
amplifiers
which
require
external
switching
control.
These
accessory
contacts
are
accessible
through
the
REMOTE
socket
on
the
rear
panel.
The
following
relay
contacts
may
be
used
in
accord
with
the
individual
requirements
of
the
chosen
amplifier.
NOTE:
Since
most
linear
amplifiers
normally
require
about
100
watts
of
drive
for
CW
operation,
the
output
of
the
TS-511S
may
be
reduced
accordingly
by
the
following
steps.
Follow
the
previous
tune-up
procedures
for
CW
operation
using
a
dummy
load.
When
the
transceiver
is
tuned,
the
output
may
be
reduced
by
slowly
turning
the
DRIVE
knob
in a
counterclockwise
direction
until
the
correct
amount
of
drive
is
obtained.
Normally
the
DRIVE
knob
will
have
to
be
moved
only
17
or
2
increments
on
the
DRIVE
scale
to
reduce
the
output
by
100
to
200
watts.
When
SSB
operation
is
desired,
the
DRIVE
knob
must
be
returned
to
its
original
position
for
maximum
drive.
REMOTE
Pin
5
is
normally
open
in
respect
to
ground.
In
the
receive
condition
the
relay
contacts
are
open.
In
the
transmit
state
the
relay
contacts
are
closed
and
shorted
to
ground.
Pin
4
is
connected
to
ground.
Pin
3
is
normally
closed
in
respect
to
ground.
In
the
receive
condition
the
relay
contacts
are
closed.
In
the
transmit
state
the
relay
contacts
are
open.
NOTE:
The
use
of
LSB
or
USB
is
dependent
upon
the
chosen
band.
The
following
combinations
are
customary:
3.5~
4.0

7.0~
7.3.
