DZKit Sienna XL
250W HF 6 Transceiver Kit
Instruction Manual
World-class RF performance with ultra low phase noise synthesizer – Rx LO
beats other well-known brands at <200Hz and >50kHz offset, and virtually ties
in the middle (-134dBe @ 2kHz, -150dBc @ 60kHz).
Acclaimed ergonomics made even better (new dark biue color option shown; also
available in black and multi-color, with choice of LED and keycap colors)
New, stronger, more serviceable chassis and fewer cables
Color touch displays and logically grouped controls make

Outstanding audio on transmit and receive:
The receiver audio stage includes bhi DSP Noise Cancelling technology: A
complete mixed-signal audio system consisting of a dual Harvard core, a
patented high-resolution floating-point coprocessor, and an Input/Output
Processor which yields 88 dB of dynamic range and exceptionally low system
noise. Removes background noise, and makes signals stand out! High-
performance class AB stereo audio amp with .02% THD at 4W output on ‘phones
and speakers simultaneously, with compression to eliminate clipping at high
volume. Extremely low noise audio amps and switching circuits in transmitter
and receiver, for clean reproduction of line-in and mic audio. 3-band
Parametric equalizers on transmitter and receiver. Balanced mic audio works
great with Heil PR-781 XLR mic.
And more!
Separate band data outputs for Tx and Rx. Master/Slave operation with
secondary Sienna XL receiver.
Linear amp control. Transverter-ready. Dual pass-band tuning. Install up to
four high-performance 9MHz Inrad roofing filters and four 455kHz filters.
Two 10dB preamps. One 10dB attenuator. Manual and paddle inputs are active
simultaneously. Remote controllable via RS-232. Upgradeable firmware.
Serviceable yourself! Detailed Assembly, User’s and Service manuals, and the
famous DZKit Worldwide Support!

DZKit assembly manuals have all the detail you expect out of a world-class
kit! Our step-by-step instructions and pictorials are easy to follow and make
kit-building fun!
An electronic version of our circuit boards is included so that you can
rapidly find the location of parts. All you need to do is run free
ExpressPCB software and load the appropriate circuit board.
Our User’s manual includes detailed instructions on how to use Sienna XL and
all I/O commands needed to operate it from a remote control program. Our
Service manual includes complete schematics and a detailed theory of
operation, should you want to understand how it works and service it yourself.
Ten reasons why we know you’ll be successful building a DZKit Sienna XL
-
It’s made in the U.S. to assure high quality and fast response to any manufacturing issues:
Chassis sheet metal is manufactured by a top-notch manufacturing facility in
Golden, CO.
Cables are made by a top-notch facility in Golden, CO
Front panel overlays are made in Illinois
Circuit boards are made in Oregon
Products are designed, tested and kitted at our plant in Loveland, CO
We buy parts from American distributors (e.g., Mouser, Digikey) and directly from many manufacturers, guaranteeing high quality and no “knock-offs”. -
We provide detailed assembly manuals with pictures, drawings, and step-by-step instructions. (See the previous page)
-
Pre-built boards are fully tested.
-
Firmware is updateable by customers easily as new features or bug fixes are
-
No custom IC’s are used. All parts are off-the-shelf.
-
Captive nuts/standoffs and screws with built-in lockwashers eliminate tedious mechanical assembly.
-
Surface-mount parts are pre-loaded.
-
We provide hard-to-get or uncommon tools in the kit.
-
Beta testers are used to refine the kit assembly process and provide feedback on usability.
-
Support is just a phone call or email away, with exceptional responsiveness.
We’ll make sure you succeed! The DZKit 1-year warranty includes free consultation with our engineers if any problems come up, and we can even finish the assembly for you if it becomes necessary (for a small fee).
