In my opinion A 520 is one of the very best ever built ! Of its type of course ! Owner's manuals and service manuals are available online for free ! I own 4 of these ! One of which has never been used ! Brand spanking new in the box ! The fella I bought it from once had hopes of getting a licence He kept it in a closet for decades :) I do not like much But What I like I like a lot ! A TS 520 KNWD I like a lot :)
Thanks for the great guide on how to do this. I've had my TS-520 for a couple years, but finally got an antenna up suitable for transmitting. Going to give this process a try.
Good job explaining the process. Don't be afraid, however, to throttle the CAR[rier] control back a shade after tuning up. You will save the finals running them at 80-90 watts and have just as much luck with making contacts.
What mode is the meter set to? The alc reading will drop to zero if your mode selector is set to USB or LSB and you aren't talking into the mic, or have your mic gain set correctly.

Could you help me out I'm having trouble dipping the plate and everything.

Your tubes are weak bud!
I just tried this on a ts-520s that I inherited. I got no response from anything. Any suggestions?
