THANK YOU THANK YOU SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES Thank you for choosing this KENWOOD TS-480HX/ After carefully unpacking the transceiver, identify the SAT transceiver. It has been developed by a team of items listed in the table below. We recommend you engineers determined to continue the tradition of keep the box and packing materials in case you need excellence and innovation in KENWOOD to repack the transceiver in the future. transceivers. Quantity This transceiver features a Digital Signal Processing (DSP) unit to process AF signals. By taking Accessory Part Number TS-480SAT TS-480HX maximum advantage of DSP technology, the TS-480HX/ SAT transceiver gives you enhanced K E K E interference reduction capabilities and improves the quality of audio. You will notice the differences when MXicrophone T91-0638-X 1111 you fight QRM and QRN. As you learn how to use DXC power cable E30-3489-X 1122 this transceiver, you will also find that KENWOOD is mini DIN plug E57-0404-XX 1111 pursuing “user friendliness”. For example, each time (6-pin male) you change the Menu No. in Menu mode, you will see mini DIN plug scrolling messages on the display that tell you what E57-0405-XX 1111 (8-pin male) you are selecting. Modular cable E30-3488-XX 1111 Though user friendly, this transceiver is technically (RJ-11 4 m) sophisticated and some features may be new to you.
