ACCESSORY CONNECTIONS

FRONT PANEL

■Headphones (PHONES)

Connect monaural or stereo headphones having a 4 to 32Ω impedance. This jack accepts a

6.3 mm (1/4") diameter, 2-conductor (mono) or

3-conductor (stereo) plug. After connecting the

headphones, you will hear no sound from the

internal (or optional external) speaker.

■ Microphone (MIC)

Connect a microphone having an impedance

between 250 and 600Ω. Fully insert the

connector, then screw the retaining ring clockwise

until secure. Compatible microphones include the

MC-43S, MC-47, MC-52DM, MC-60A, MC-80,

REAR PANEL

■External Speakers (EXT.SP1/ EXT.SP2)

This transceiver has 2 independent receivers. Thus, it can output 2 separate audio signals. As a default, the transceiver mixes both audio signals internally and outputs them from the internal speaker. On the rear panel of the transceiver, there are 2 external speaker jacks. If an external speaker is connected to EXP.SP1, the internal speaker will mute. If the speaker is connected to EXT.SP2, both the external speaker and the

internal speaker will function. Use only external speakers with an impedance of 4 to 8Ω (8Ω nominal). These jacks accept only 3.5 mm (1/8") diameter, 2-conductor (mono) plugs.

Do not connect headphones to this jack. The high audio output of this jack could damage your hearing.

■Keys for CW (PADDLE and KEY)

For CW operation using the internal electronic keyer, connect a keyer paddle to the PADDLE jack. For CW operation without using the internal electronic keyer, connect a straight key, semi-automatic key (bug), electronic keyer, or the CW keyed output from a Multimode Communications Processor (MCP) to the KEY jack. The PADDLE and KEY jacks mate with a

6.3mm (1/4") 3-conductor plug and a 3.5 mm (1/8") 2-conductor plug respectively. External electronic keyers or MCPs must use positive keying to be compatible with this transceiver. Use a shielded cable between the key and the transceiver.

Note: Due to the functionality of the internal electronic keyer, you may find it unnecessary to connect both a paddle and another type of keyer unless you want to use a PC-based keyer for CW. Read the “ELECTRONIC KEYER” section {page 42} to become familiar with the internal keyer.
