Not enough information to give a simple answer.. however, a Kenwood TS-440S or S/AT either one should put out about 100-110 watts of RF power. The best way to determine this is to transmit a CW tone into a dummy load and read the power out on a known "good" wattmeter. If you are seeing about 100 watts, you are doing good!

There are no tweeks to actually get the power up inside the radio, and any that you try will over drive the solid state finals and they will burn up.

Some new hams think that since 100w is good, 125w or 150w has got to be better, however in reality, and from my experience it does take about 500w to get at least 1 S unit better on the receiving station. That said, trying to get over 100w on a radio that is designed to only do 100w it both fruitless and risky for the circuits.

If you are not getting 100w (up to 90w is good enough), but are much less, say 75w, you may want to find a repair facility that can examine the rig for repairs.

If you really need more power (QRO), I suggest running an RF amplifier using the TS-440S as the exciter, or driver.

Good luck,

How do you increase the power output of the kenwood ts-440s?

Use an amplifier.


What two events increase power output?

Increasing the amount of resistance in a workout, such as adding weight to strength training exercises, can increase power output. Additionally, performing explosive movements like jumps or sprints can also increase power output by recruiting more muscle fibers in a short amount of time.


If you want to increase the power output should you increase the amount of work done or increase the time spent in doing work Explain.?

To increase power output, you should focus on increasing the amount of work done in a given amount of time, rather than increasing the time spent doing work. Power is directly proportional to the rate at which work is done, so by increasing the amount of work done in the same time frame, you can increase power output.


What 2 events increase power output?

In electricity, power (P) is directly proportional to voltage (E) and amps (I) as in P=I*E Thus an increase in either corresponds to an increase in power.


Why is output dc higher than input ac?

Output power can never be more than input power. With a transformer, it is possible to increase the output current (while decreasing the output voltage), or to decrease the output current (while increasing the output voltage).

Is there anyway it increase the power out put of a motor?

The power output of a motor can be changed by the use of gears. Gears can be used to increase torque by reducing the speed of the output shaft by placing a large gear on the output shaft, coupled to a smaller gear. Conversely, by using a small gear on the output shaft, coupled to a larger gear, the speed can be increased with a reduction in torque.


Can a a electric substation in a city use transformers to increase the power output?

No! A transformer changes voltage levels, not power levels. In fact, the output power of a transformer is actually a little lower than its input power, due to the efficiency of a transformer.


What is two instances does power output become greater?

Power output can become greater by increasing the force applied to an object or by increasing the speed at which the force is applied. Increasing either force or speed, or a combination of both, can result in an increase in power output.


What unit of measurement is a tenfold logarithmic ratio of power output to power input?

The unit of measurement for a tenfold logarithmic ratio of power output to power input is the decibel (dB). Specifically, this is often expressed as decibels relative to a reference power level, using the formula: ( L = 10 \log_{10} \left( \frac{P_{\text{output}}}{P_{\text{input}}} \right) ). In this context, an increase of 10 dB represents a tenfold increase in power.
