This is the original manufacturers service manual, with detailed info on the circit boards, explosion drawings of all parts in assembly order, and tuning instructions. The only thing missing is the information on the dimensions of the various drive belts. mail me if you need them. gcrossman_at_aol.com
This service manual for the Kenwood KT-990D was reproduced really well ,is very legible and manual is complete.Combined with the low price paid,in the future,I will be checking Owner-Manuals.com any time I need a manual.

17. Disconnect the cables connected to IFa in and IFa out of the unit. 18. Adjust the spectrum analyzer so that the compression modulation peak level can be seen clearly on the spectrum analyzer screen. (Use this item as the reference level.) 19. Set the variable resistance attenuator to 0 dB. 20. Adjust control VR1 (RV1) of the RF ASSY so that the bottom level in the compression modulation of the signal comes to the position set in step 7.
21. Repeat the adjustments in section 4.6 and the adjustments in steps 1 to 20 in section 4.8 three times to raise the accuracy. *1 Observe the following values when adjusting the modulation distortion and compression distortion to facilitate the adjustments. � Clear mode: Meter reading � 6/10 dB mode: Noise waveform on oscilloscope
