Subject: My TS590 has arrived!!!
Hi, folks.
Well, today, I'm happy to report that I now have a TS590 sitting on my
operating desk here in the shack.
It's not a brand new one, but is slightly used, and is in excellent shape.
I got it from a fellow blind ham in our area here. He took my TS480 as a
trade, and I paid him an additional agreed-upon amount of cash to seal the
deal.
So far, I have done the firmware upgrade, and worked to connect all of my
stuff to the 590 in order to make it fully functional.
Now my next task will be to learn the ins and outs of the radio, so I may
have some questions from time to time.
Actually, I do have a quick question now. It concerns the two antenna ports
on the back of the rig. If you are looking at the rig with the front panel
facing you, the ports are on the top right-hand corner of the back panel of
the radio.
Are these antenna ports interchangeable, meaning that you can use whichever
one you want--similar to the antenna ports on the TS480?
And, where is the "receive only" antenna that is supposed to be part of the
TS590.
I can't seem to find a third antenna port anywhere.
