If the problem persists, contact a KENWOOD authorized service center for repairs. The transceiver Most of the external RF power meters Apply a continuous single tone (1 kHz) to - output power seems measure the average RF power. So, the microphone audio input to measure to be low in SSB the meter reading is low when you the RF output power. The PEP will be the mode. operate and talk in SSB mode. same as this RF output level. The LCD meter used in the TS-480 has relatively fast response time but it is not fast enough to measure the accurate PEP (peak envelope power). 87
