About the Kenwood TS-990S

The Kenwood TS-990S is Kenwood's flagship HF/VHF amateur radio transceiver, offering top-tier receive performance, dual receivers, and 200W output, designed for serious DXing, contests, and advanced operation.

Common questions

Where can I get the USB audio drivers?

You do not need to download any drivers. When you connect the TS-990S to a computer via USB for the first time, the operating system automatically installs the standard driver. You can then use it for general communication, though you may notice some USB audio latency.

Can I use a USB or Bluetooth headset?

Yes, but there are caveats. USB or Bluetooth headsets can be used, but due to inherent delays in these devices, spoken audio may lag, and received audio may take time to appear in the headphones. Kenwood does not recommend them if such delays could cause problems.

How do I connect the TS-990S to a PC for digital modes or audio recording?

Use the built-in USB port with the ARUA-10 software for audio streaming, or ARCP-990/ARHP-990 for PC control and remote operation. The TS-990S also supports LAN and serial connections for advanced features.
