Question,
Is that 8 pin connector for the transverter jack a like proprietary 
Kenwood plug?

I bought an 8 pin one from digikey, and it arrived today,

I tried to push it in just to test it out and when completely assembled 
it just won't go in. So I looked closely and the pinout pattern looks 
good the like keyway thing is also in the right place.

So I took it apart and tried just the pins part and no go it appears the 
pins are too big to fit into the holes.
Anyone know if this is a special kenwood plug? Or why this won't go in?

There are 8 pin DIN's and then there are Kenwood 8 pin DIN's. The pin
spread (in degrees) is different for Kenwood  8 pin DIN's.
See: http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/parts/dinconn.html
Scroll down to the 8 pin.

And if you don't know better and force it in then you get to remember that mistake by having to replace the jack on the radio. It's obvious how I know this!

I hope NOT! cuz I did indeed do that! It went in ohhhh between 1/2 and 
3/4 way in, but did not go all the way in. I thought it did not feel 
right, AND it did NOT shut down the HF finals still full output via the 
regular HF SO-239.

UG! Wish me luck after I get a real one thank you Kenwood!

Yeah it is a special pin configuration.

Thank You Kenwood

NOT!
So far between the 2 plugs bought, and crazy shipping charges, I'm 
closing in on 30 bucks for this connector. and hopefully I did not ruin 
the jack in the radio trying the wrong 8 pin connector who knows what 
that will cost to replace

Joe: Both connectors are "standard" but one is much more popular than the
other. One is the SGR-80 style, also known as the Horseshoe connector, and
the other is the SGR-81 style. Not sure which is the Kenwood, but I believe
it is the Horseshoe style. The main difference is the outer pins on the
horseshoe style are shaped in a horseshoe pattern, particularly the last
two by the key/notch, as opposed to a circular pattern. I speculate that
the reason for the horseshoe connector is to leave more space by the keyway
 for a switch that gets activated when the connector is inserted. My
TS-830s has such a switch as part of the chassis connector. --73, Mike,

Actually they aren't "Standard" the total angle spread is whats 
different, the like DigiKey model is
8 PIN DIN Inline jack
270? pin spread
where the Kenwood is,
8 PIN DIN plug
262? pin spread
Kenwood-type.

I have a TS-120-S that I've used on SSB with no reported problems.
I'd like to use it for mobile PSK/MFSK/RTTY/MT-63, etc.
It's been serviced by Clif, "The Texas Magician" within the past several years.
Any comments regarding the stability of the signal for use in these modes?

to maximum legal power, utilizing two 3-500Z high performance
transmitting tubes. The amp features two meters for maximum
operating convenience. Power is 2000W PEP SSB, 1000W DC CW/
RTTY input. Drive power is 80 or more watts.

For all practical purposes, the TL-922 A is similar to the SB-220/
221, but with improvements added, since it was designed after
the Heath amps. It also includes 160 meters. It has larger
transformers, and heavier duty tank circuit.

This one has had the filter capacitors replaced, the Harbach
"Soft Key" added, along with a glitch resistor, and various
protective diodes. All bulbs have been replaced.

The Eimac 3-500's produce from 1300 watts to over 1500 watts
into a dummy load, depending on band.

Electrically, this amp is a 10, and cosmetically it is a 9.9.
It is an exceptionally nice amp, both electrically and cosmetically.

Power requirement is 120V AC at 28A or 240V AC at 14A.

Paper work is included for $1250. Again, pickup near Ocala, FL,
is best.

Heath SB-221 HF Linear Amplifier:

The SB-221 uses a pair of Eimac 3-500 tubes to deliver close to
legal limit output on the HF bands. It is a proven design that
has been copied by many others.

This SB-221 is a late one, with plug in transformer and "redish"
meters. It was assembled in 1982, and lightly used about 10 years.
It works fine and looks very close to new, with no known defects.
In addition, it has recently had most of the Harbach improvements
added including a new set of filter capacitors with improved
equalizing/bleeder resistors, new metering/rectifier board, "Soft
Key" board to reduce keying voltages and currents, glitch resistor,
protective diodes, new HV metering resistors, and more.
The Eimac tubes produce in the vicinity of 1200 Watts output,
depending on band.

This is a really an exceptional amp. Everything works fine, and it
looks like new with no scratches or defects. Please call or e-mail
for more details.

This amp includes an inch thick notebook with paper work, including
the Harbach improvements, for $900.

Pickup near Ocala, FL, would be preferred.

NOTE:  Power output was measured with an LP-100 A wattmeter,
calibrated traceable to NBS.

Pickup near Ocala FL is preferred.

Linear Amp Switching Cable for Kenwood Rigs:

This cable goes from a Kenwood transceiver to a linear
amplifier to switch the amp from transmit to receive.

One end has a DIN connector, as is used with most Kenwood
rigs. The other end has an RCA phono plug, as used by most
linear amplifiers.

Before using this cable, please check the switching
capabilities of your transceiver, and the requirements
of your amplifier.

This cable is for switching the relay. $15


I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, HF, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, etc.
Just too many to list here. Please e-mail your requests.


Prices do not include shipping from Florida.


Thanks.

I have for sale a Kenwood TS440S 160-10m all mode transceiver.  It does 100
watts on SSB/CW/AM/FM/FSK. Probably one of the most popular selling Kenwood
transceivers of all time.  It puts out full power, receive is fine, and it
has the great Kenwood audio.  The case is in very good condition, with only
a couple of light scratches on the very back, on the top of the PA unit.
The face is in great condition as well  The backlight for the S meter is
out, and the keypad sometimes does the double strike, where you push the
key once and it enters the number twice.  It doesn't do this all of the
time, though. Those are the only issues with it, and they are minor.

I am asking $335 plus shipping for it.  It comes with a Kenwood hand mic
and power cord.  I can take paypal/check/MO.
