#Kenwood tk 880 programming ham radio software#
This again required the KPG software - for some reason we couldn't get the radio into Panel Test/Tune via the control head. Once we had the PLL voltages minimized for RX and TX, I found that the radio's TX frequency was way off, so a frequency alignment was needed.
This requires re-programming the radio's test frequencies to match the band of interest, so you'll need the KPG software and cable. The goal is to monitor test point CV with a voltmeter and adjust for minimum voltage during RX and TX. (Don't ask why they're out of order.) According to the Service Manual, Pot A sets the PLL for the low end of the receiver range, Pot B sets the high end of the receiver range, and Pot C sets the TX PLL.
In the PLL section, under the copper foil, are three adjustment pots: A = TC302, B = TC303, and C = TC301. TX was fine, but RX was giving a steady "beep-beep-beep." which indicates PLL unlock. My friend wanted his radio to work on the Bay-Net repeater system, which operates 443.225 with a +5 MHz TX split. Kudos to Tim K for his notes posted to Radio Reference which gave enough hints to make this happen. I wasn't sure how successful we'd be, since most every online search came up with at best little information or at worst flat out statements saying "Nope, can't be done." As it turns out, it can be done. Over the past weekend a friend of mine asked if I would help him convert his Kenwood TK-890 mobile to work on the ham bands.
