2.4 MICROPHONE
Attach the microphone connector to a suitable micro-
phone,as shown in Figure2-1. Be sure the microphone
PTT switch is separatefrom the microphonecircuit, as
shown. lt should be noted that a microphonewith a 3P
plug usinga common groundterminalshouldnot be used.
The microphoneinput is designedfor 50OO - 50kO mi-
crophones. The choice of microphone is important for
good speechquality,and should be given seriousconsidera-
tion. The crystallatticefilter in the transceiverprovidesall
the restrictionnecessaryon audio response,and further
restrictionin the microphoneis not required.lt is more im-
portantto havea microphonewith a smooth,flat response
throughoutthe speechrange.
Follow the microohone manufacturer'sinstructionsfor
connectingthe microphonecableto the plug. With many
microphones,the push-to-talkswitch must be pressedto
make microphoneaudioavailable.For VOX operation,this
unwantedfeature may be eliminated,if.desired,by open-
ing the microphonecase and permanentlyconnectingthe
contactswhich controlthe microphoneaudio.

2.6 EXTERNAL SPEAKER AND
HEADPHONES
Receiveaudiooutput from the TS-530 is 1.5 watts at 4 to
16 ohms. The TS-530 has a built-inspeakerjack on the
rear panel. The speaker may be an 8-ohm permanent-
magnet type, 4 inchesor'larger. The internalspeakeris
disconnectedwhen an external speakeris used. Head-
'l
phones should also be 4 to 6 ohms impedance or
greater. When headphonesare connectedto the front-
panelPHONESjack,the speakeris disabled.
2.7 GROUND
To oreventelectricshock,and reducethe possibilityof TVI
and BCl,connect the transceiverto a good earth ground
throughas short and heavya leadas possible.
2.8 ANTENNA
Any of the common antennasystemsdesignedfor use on
the high frequencyamateurbands may be used with the
TS-530 providedthe input impgdanceof the transmission
line is not outsidethe capabilityof the bi-outputm3tching
network. The transmissionline should be coaxialcable.

put impedancethat is essentiallyresistive,and between
15 and 2OO ohms will take power from the transceiver
with little difficulty. lf openwire of balancedtype trans-
missionline is used with the antenna,a suitableantenna
tuner with balunis recommendedbetweenthe transceiver
and the feedline. Methods of constructionand operating
such tuners are describedin detail in the ARRL Antenna

the 10, 15 and 20 meter bands,the efficiencyof the sta-
tion will be greatly increasedif a good directionalrotary
antennais used. Rememberthat even the most powerful
transceiveris uselesswithout a properantenna.

(See Internal View Bottom)
The TS-530 requiresneutralizationevery time the final
tubes are changed.
Tune up the TS-53O into a 50 ohm dummy load at
28.5 MHz for CW operation as described in Section
4. Set the SG switch to OFF and place a sensitiveRF
milli-voltmeteracrossthe dummy load. Flip the stand-by
switch to SENDand adjustTC1 (at the bottom of the final
section)for a minimumreadingon the voltmeter.After the
final sectionis neutralized, flip the stand-byswitch to REC
a n d s l i d et h e S G s w i t c hO n .
A receiver tuned to 28.5 MHz works very well for
neutralizing if an RF voltmeter is not available. In-
stead of tuning for a minimum voltage,tune for a min-
imum S-meterreading.

Adjust VRl to your preference.

Since the drive tube operates into a fixed load (the

finals) it is not always necessaryto replace this tube
when replacingthe finals.

CAUTION:
Neutralizationof the final section should be carried
out with the chassis shield in place. Dangeroushigh
voltages are present in the final section when the
transceiveris turned on. Use an insulatedtool to make
the adjustment.
