Just a reminder that tubes aren’t cheap. Showing how I tune my Kenwood 922a with a pair of 3-500z tubes.

Great video, Jay. Are you using a relay between TL922 PTT and radio?

Sorry Can not see what you are doing at all I have this amp The correct way to tune it is Tune on cw both amp And radio Put meter in rf position And leave it there 50 watts or less to start is fine Key radio Dip plate with plate knob Watch right meter plate current Unkey radio key up again Adjust load knob For Max rf output on left meter You will see it will only rise so far Please note there is recommended Starting points for the load knob Consult your manual For 10 meters start load At 3 Please also note Max drive input for this amp Is 135 I hope I helped Take all confusion out of the tuning Thanks

When you are ready to go-to ssb just switch radio and amp to ssb

Great video! do I really need an external antenna tuner for the tl-922? /thanks
@JayN4GO
@JayN4GO 8 месяцев назад
If you antennas are less than 2.1 swr , then you don’t need a tuner. All of mine are 1.5:1 so I never use the tuner.
@MyJeff1969

Nope you do Not need antenna tuner If your antenna is already tuned for the band you are using I don't even use a watt meter Look at my comment above

I bought a TL922-a in non working conditions. It was ok, but using it as is would have caused more issues that I could have afford to fix. Anyway, first amp, never owned, never worked one. I gave it to Scott “the amp guy” to mod and get up to par. This video was great for me. Yes, the manual gives “manual type” instructions, but you can’t beat watching a guy going thru the process. It reassures me I tuned the correct way. I watched other videos on tuning an amp, I wanted one about tuning the amp I have. Nothing else out there. This is not a video for the experienced guy, but there are plenty of greenhorns (like me) out there that can benefit from it. So, thanks for taking the time to do it, and for the great explanation all around.
