TRANSMITTING
For voice communications, press [SEND] or press
and hold Mic [PTT], then speak into the microphone
in your normal tone of voice. When you finish
speaking, press [SEND] again or release Mic [PTT].
To transmit CW, press [VOX/ LEVEL] to switch the
Break-in function ON, then close the key or keyer
paddle. Connect a key or keyer paddle {pages 3, 39},
then select CW mode.

For a detailed explanation on transmitting, see
“BASIC COMMUNICATIONS”, beginning on page 28.
Note: When using AM, CW, or FSK mode, you may adjust the
carrier level. In general, adjust the level so that the ALC meter reads
within the limits of the ALC zone. For the adjustment procedures,
refer to the instructions for each mode in “TRANSMISSION”
{pages 28, 29, 30}.
SELECTING TRANSMIT POWER
It is wise to select a lower transmit power if
communication is still reliable. This lowers the risk of
interfering with others on the band. When operating
from battery power, selecting a lower transmit power
allows you more operating time before a charge is
necessary. This transceiver allows you to change the
transmit power even while transmitting.
1 Press [PWR/ TX MONI].
The current transmit power appears.

HF/VHE/UHF ALL MODE MULTI BANDER TS-2000
The selectable range differs, depending on the
current band and mode.
3 Press [PWR/ TX MONI] to complete the setting.
Note: You may access Menu No. 23, “FINE TRANSMIT POWER
TUNING”, and select “ON” (press [+]) to change the step size from
5 W to 1 W {page 79}.
MICROPHONE GAIN
The microphone gain must be adjusted when SSB
or AM mode is used without speech processing
{pages 28, 29}.
1 Press [MIC/ CAR].
The current microphone gain level appears.
The default is 50; the range is from 0 to 100.

2 Press [SEND] or press and hold Mic [PTT].
The MAIN band LED lights red.
3 SSB: While speaking into the microphone, adjust
the MULTI/ CH control so that the ALC meter
reflects your voice level, but does not exceed the
ALC limit.
AM: While speaking into the microphone, adjust
the MULTI/ CH control so that the calibrated
power meter slightly reflects your voice level.
CW, FSK: While transmitting, adjust the
MULTI/ CH control so that the ALC meter reflects
the carrier level within the ALC zone.

4 Press [SEND] or release Mic [PTT].
The MAIN band LED lights green or turns off,
depending on the MAIN SQL control setting.
5 Press [MIC/ CAR].
For FM mode, access Menu No. 41 {page 28} and
select “LOW”, “MID”, or “HIGH” for the microphone
gain.
Note: When using the optional MC-90 microphone in FM mode,
select “HIGH” for the microphone gain. The microphone sensitivity is
low in FM mode. This may cause insufficient modulation. For other
microphones, select either “LOW” or “MID”.
