Re: Using an external speaker
Hi guys, from what I read in the manual, the supplied mic is supposed to have an external speaker plug. I'm still awaiting my TX-500, so I cannot confirm on the hardware, though.

Re: Using an external speaker
Henry, thanks I had not thought of that, but I wanted to use a non powered speaker, guess I could make some sort of adapter to split the speaker out but appears pretty cumbersome, Geoff

Re: Using an external speaker
Geoff,
I was thinking about that same setup earlier today. There is audio out
(pin 3) from the REM DATA port, thus you should be able to drive a powered
speaker. I will be trying that

Using an external speaker
Awaiting delivery of my TX500 from HRO, and need to know can I use an external speaker and the supplied mic at the same time? It appears to me that is not feasible with the connectors I see, looking

Hello Glen,
I believe the answers to your questions #2 and #3 are given on page 18 of
the English manual.

Hi Glen
I can only answer #1
Yes I did. Wiring is exactly like you descibed it. Went without any problems. I set the output of the soundcard to about 50% and then increased the mic gain so that the

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List
Thank you to the folks who responded to my questions/concerns about the receiver in the TX-500.? I also realize that these are not going to be high performance rigs, being so small, and mostly for

Hi Elan
I had email contact with the support twice. In both cases they answered within a couple of hours.

Elan,
I had a question concerning CAT support and got an useful answer within a
day. Now it works.

Elan,
You can reach TX-500 support at: support@...
I am aware of two successful communications with that address.

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List
Hey all;
Yeppers...I agree.
The numbers "game" can lead to problems comparing rigs. It can help to
remember, if asked, Mr. Sherwood will ALSO explain that there are rigs with
great "numbers" that

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List
I made a test this evening on 40 m. Collected FT8 signals over 15 minutes
with my TS570 (not the best RX, I know) and the TX500. I know, this is not
a measurement! The antenna was the same end feed

Paul,
Great information! Should be required reading by anyone considering a new
radio.
Oh no...I must be older...I use to think the higher number of 'tubes' made
the better radio!

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List
Stephan,
The most disappointing test numbers to me are the Dynamic Range both wide
(79 db) and narrow (79 db) spaced. However, I am not sure how this will
play out during a contest with the TX-500.

Re: TX-500 on Sherwood Receiver Test Data List
Hi Henry,
I'm just curious about which numbers are not good.
The 2uV is without pre-amplifier and is 0.23uV when it is enabled.
This single value is comparable to FlexRadio 6400 (pretty at the top)
