200W 160-6M HF Base Transceiver
The TS-990S comes equipped with dual receivers for simultaneous reception on different bands, it also features narrow-band roofing filters on the main receiver in a full down-conversion configuration. The TS-990S achieves the highest basic reception performance of any radio in the TS series, through the careful selection of circuits, components and accelerating analysis using triple DSP configuration. Also, thanks to the dual TFT display and superior panel layout, it achieves both comfortable visibility and operability. Our top-of-the-line transceiver is for all radio operators who love HF.
The transceiver uses the down-conversion method on all amateur bands, and features five types of High-IP roofing filter. Narrow bandpass widths selectable are 500 Hz and 270 Hz for CW operation, 2.7 kHz for SSB and 6 kHz and 15 kHz, which are suitable for AM/FM. These filters are automatically selected in tandem with DSP-based settings. Of course, manual switching is possible as well.

"Wire telegraph is a kind of a very long cat. You pull his tail in NY and his
head is meowing in LA. Radio operates exactly the same way - you send signals
here: they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no
cat."

Hi Linda. Yeah well commercial shortwave radio is becoming an endangered species with most of the major broadcasters having left for the greener pastures of satellite and internet but ham radio is still around with the usual contesting and "rag chewing".
